I LOVE TO DANCE LIKE THEY USED TO DANCE
(Alan Bergman / Marilyn Bergman / Billy Goldenberg)
Bing Crosby - 1975
I love to dance like they used to dance
When you held a girl in your arms
No hide and seek, just cheek to cheek
No fun in doin' a single
When there's no touch, there's no tingle
I love to travel across the floor
Holdin' somethin' more than just air
Come and dance with me, you and I can be
Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire
Tell the band to blow ev'ry tune they know
And throw in a tango or two
How I love to dance like they used to dance
When the girl in my arms is you
(Orchestral Interlude)
I love to travel across the floor
Holdin' somethin' more than just air
Come and dance with me, you and I can be
Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire
Tell the leader man we don't need a plan
Just give us a one and a two
How I love to dance like they used to dance
When the girl in my arms is you
