Lyrics I Could Have Danced All Night by Frederick Loewe

Bed, bed, I couldn't go to bed
My head's too light to try to set it down
Sleep, sleep, I couldn't sleep tonight
Not for all the jewels in the crown

I could have danced all night
I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things
I've never done before
I'll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he
Began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced all night!

It's after three now

Don't you agree now?

Shе ought to be in bed
I could have dancеd

You're tired out

All night!

You must be dead

I could have danced

You face is drawn

All night!

You eyes are red

And still have begged for more
Now say good night, please
Turn out the light, please
It's really time for you to be in bed

I could have spread

Do come along

My wings

Do as you're told

And done a thou—

Or Mrs. Pearce

Sand things
Is apt to scold

I've never done before

You're up too late, Miss
And sure as fate, Miss
You'll catch a cold

I'll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know

Put down your book

When he

The work will keep

Began to dance

Now settle down

With me

And go to sleep

I could have danced, danced, danced all night!

I understand, dear
It's all been grand, dear
But now it's time to sleep

I could have danced all night
I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things
I've never done before
I'll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he
Began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced
All night!
