I Could've Danced All Night

Julie Andrews


Bed, Bed I couldn't go to bed 
My head's to light to try to set it down
Sleep, Sleep I couldn't sleep tonight
Not for all the jewels in the crown 

I could have danced all night 
I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings 
And done a thousand things 
I've never done before

I'll never know 
What made it so exciting 
Why all at once, 
My heart took flight

I only know when he 
Began to dance with me 
I could have danced danced danced! 
All night. 

It's after three now

Don't you agree now
She ought to be in bed

I could have danced all night
I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things
I've never done before.
I'll never know
What made it so exciting.
Why all at once my heart took flight.
I only know when he
Began to dance with me.
I could have danced, danced danced all night!

I understand, dear.
It's all been grand, dear.
But now it's time to sleep.

I could have danced all night,
I could have danced all night.
And still have begged for more.
I could have spread my wings,
And done a thousand things
I've never done before.
I'll never know
What made it so exciting.
Why all at once my heart took flight.
I only know when he
Began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced
All night!
