Masterworks Broadway - Dance with Me Darling lyrics

[MEREDITH] We have to let him live. I'm begging you. As your wife. [DR. PARKER] You haven't been a wife to me in years. [MEREDITH] I could be. [DR. PARKER] ... Tonight? [MEREDITH] Uh… [DR. PARKER] Tonight? MEREDITH ...Let me get you a drink. [DR. PARKER] But there was a time, you know, When you would dance with me, Once long ago, There was love in your eyes. You were so light in my arms, We danced five hours or more, We were the last on the floor, With the sun still to rise... The band played one final song, And you were humming along: Oh, dance with me, darling we haven't danced since I don't know when. You remember that song Meredith? Dance with me, darling, Won't you embrace me? Kiss me in case we don't meet again. I've heard a rumour, Barely a whisper, Claiming that we were through. So dance with me, darling Show them that it's not true. [MEREDITH] So you'll do it? [DR. PARKER] So you'll do it? [MEREDITH] Yes [DR. PARKER] Did you hear that? I guess that makes us "pals" 'Cause now I can't say no, Tonight she smiled at me: It just goes to show, Someone up there still cares. I prayed this day would arrive, When she'd return to my arms; Now if I keep you alive, I can join her upstairs. I see a way to proceed So we both can get what we need. Oh: [VOICES IN DR. PARKER'S HEAD] Dance with me, darling Doo dooby doo doo Doo dooby doo... [DR. PARKER] Dance with me, darling La da da da da, Da da da da da, da da, da da Oh, dance with me, darling Da da da da da Da da da da da Da da da da Surely it's more than moonlight and music Surely it's more than wine. [DR. PARKER AND VOICES] So dance with me, darling, Show them that you're still mine!... [VOICES] Ah ah ah ah ah ah, Ah ah ah ah ah ah... Aaaaaaahhhh! [DR. PARKER] Surely the Gods must want us together Don't fight their grand design No, dance with me, darling [VOICES] Aah! [DR. PARKER] Dance with me darling [VOICES] Aah! [DR. PARKER] And be forever mine! [VOICES] Aah, aah, aah!
