Take your partners for the dance

Quick before you miss the chance

Make your loving while you can

Or she'll find another man who will



Losing someone makes you sad

Makes you feel that life is bad

So sad, drives you mad



Once upon a time there was

So there is still

Loving of a kind

That rang here

Until doors began to close

And love was left screaming

When life was diagnosed

By the doctors of dreaming



la la la etc



(voice) 'And now , ladies and gentlemen,

there's just time to grab the nearest

human being for the one chance dance!'
