I Wont Dance - Eddy Duchin

(He:)I won't dance, don't ask me. 
I won't dance, don't ask me. 
I won't dance, madame, with you.
My heart won't let me do things they should do. 
You know what? You're lovely.

(She:)And so what? I'm lovely.

(He:)But, oh what you do to me. 
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore;
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor.

(She:)When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle, 
'specially when you do the Continental.

(He:)But this feeling isn't purely mental, 
for heaven rest us, I'm not asbestos.
And that's why I won't dance, why should I? 
I won't dance, how could I? 
I won't dance. Merci beaucoup. 
I know that music leads the way to romance, 
so if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance.
