gptkbp:notable_song
|
“ And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair”
“ As the miller told his tale”
“ We skipped the light fandango”
A whiter shade of pale
As the miller told his tale
I thought I saw you there
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
We skipped the light fandango
And the way the sunlight flickered.
We skipped the light fandango.
