Why is my heart dancing
Imagine dancing
You look at me and suddenly it's spring.
Why do you keep sighing
Not sad, just sighing
I'm young and free and suddenly it's spring.
High on a hilltop, love is calling
Someone should wish me happy falling.
No more being lonely, can I be lonely
You look at me and suddenly it's spring.

High on a hilltop, love is calling
Someone should wish me happy falling.
No more being lonely, can I be lonely
You look at me and suddenly it's spring.
