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.
Heaven, i'm in heaven,
and the cares that hang around me thro' the week
seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
when we're out together dancing, cheek to cheek.
Oh! i love to climb a mountain,
and to reach the highest peak,
but it doesn't thrill me half as much
as dancing cheek to cheek.
Oh! i love to go out fishing
in a river or a creek,
but i don't enjoy it half as much
as dancing cheek to cheek.
Dance with me
i want my arm about you;
the charm about you
will carry me thro' to 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.
