|
I danced in the morning when the world was young |
|
I danced in the moon, and the stars, and the sun |
|
I came down from Heaven and I danced on the Earth |
|
At Bethlehem I had my birth |
|
Dance, then, wherever you may be |
|
I am the lord of the dance said he |
|
And I lead you all wherever you may be |
|
And I lead you all in the dance said he |
|
I danced for the scribes and the pharisees |
|
They wouldn't dance, they wouldn't follow me |
|
I danced for the fishermen James and John |
|
They came with me so the dance went on |
|
Dance, then, wherever you may be |
|
I am the lord of the dance said he |
|
And I lead you all wherever you may be |
|
And I lead you all in the dance said he |
|
I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame |
|
The holy people said it was a shame |
|
They ripped me and they stripped me and they hung me high |
|
Left me there on the cross to die |
|
Dance, then, wherever you may be |
|
I am the lord of the dance said he |
|
And I lead you all wherever you may be |
|
And I lead you all in the dance said he |
|
I danced on a Friday when the world turned black |
|
It's hard to dance with the devil on your back |
|
They buried my body; they thought I was gone |
|
But I am the dance, and the dance goes on |
|
Dance, then, wherever you may be |
|
I am the lord of the dance said he |
|
And I lead you all wherever you may be |
|
And I lead you all in the dance said he |
