The Floral Dance

The Floral Dance Lyrics by Terry Wogan

Intro Verse 1 I Thought I Could Hear The Curious Tone, Of The Cornet, Clarinet And Big Trombone Fiddle, 'Cello, Big Bass Drum, Bassoon, The Flute And Euphonium Far Away, As In A Trance, I Heard The Sound Of The Floral Dance Break Verse 2 As I Walked Home On A Summer Night, When Stars In Heaven Were Shining Bright Far Away From The Footlight's Glare, Into The Sweet And Scented Air Of A Quaint Old Cornish Town Break Verse 3 Borne From Afar On The Gentle Breeze, Joining The Murmur Of Summer Seas Distant Tones Of An Old World Dance, Played By The Village Band Pеrchance On The Calm Air Came Floating Down Break Verse 4 I Thought I Could Hеar The Curious Tone, Of The Cornet, Clarinet And Big Trombone Fiddle, 'Cello, Big Bass Drum, Bassoon, The Flute And Euphonium Far Away, As In A Trance, I Heard The Sound Of The Floral Dance I Heard The Sound Of The Floral Dance Break Verse 5 And Soon I Heard Such A Bustling And Prancing, Then I Saw The Whole Village Was Dancing In And Out Of The Houses They Came, Old Folk, Young Folk, All The Same In That Quaint Old Cornish Town Break Verse 6 Every Boy Took A Girl 'Round The Waist And Hurried Her Off In Tremendous Haste Whether They Knew One Another I Care Not, Whether They Cared At All, I Know Not But They Kissed As They Danced Along Break Verse 7 And There Was The Band With That Curious Tone, Of The Cornet, Clarinet And Big Trombone Fiddle, 'Cello, Big Bass Drum, Bassoon, A Flute And Euphonium Each One Making The Most Of His Chance, All Together In The Floral Dance All Together In The Floral Dance Final Dancing Here, Prancing There, Jigging, Jogging Everywhere Up And Down, And Around The Town. Hurrah! For The Cornish Floral Dance
