(Billy Montana/Don Ellis)



Me in my rented tuxedo, you in your big sisters dress

I could hear my own heart beating, when you laid your head on my chest.

No telling how long it was since the last song

With the band gone and the lights all faded.

All alone on that gym floor, dancing with no music playing.



Me in my rented tuxedo, you in your mamas white dress

Rice in your hair, your shoes in one hand, and one hand caressing my neck.

The light from the moon filled that old hotel room

As my hands closed around your waist.

And we were holding each other, dancing with no music playing



Ohhhh, theres nothing to say

Youuu take me away

Dancing with no music playing

Oh, dancing with no music playing



(instrumental)



Me in my old faded Levis, you in your blue cotton dress

Time it dont have no effect on the way that you still steal my breath.

As we spin once more across the cold kitchen floor,

Your warm cheek touches my face,

And I could die in your arms, dancing with no music playing

Oh, I could die in your arms, dancing with no music playing



Mmm

Dancing with no music playing
