Heaven, I’m in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we’re out together, dancing, cheek to cheek

A fine romance with no kisses
A fine romance, my friend, this is
You never give the orchids I send a glance!
No, you like cactus plants
This is a fine romance

The way you wear your hat
The way you sing off key
The memory of all that
No, no they can’t take that away from me
No, they can’t take that away from me

I wanna dance don’t ask me
I wanna dance don’t ask me
I wanna dance, madame, with you
I know that music leads the way to romance
And if I ask you to hold me in your arms
I wanna dance

I’m putting on my top hat
Tying up my tie
Brushing off my tails
I’m doing up my shirt front
Putting in my shirt studs
Polishing my nails

I’m stepping out, my dear, to breathe an atmosphere
That simply reeks of class

And I’ll trust that you’ll excuse my dust
When I step on the gas

For I’ll be there
Putting on my top hat
Tying up my tie
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night
