An Empty Ballroom Lyrics

An Empty Ballroom - Ella Fitzgerald/Sly Oliver Orchestra

Written by:Ella Fitzgerald

It was just an empty ballroom

 

Dark and still beyond repair

 

It was odd but I'd swear

I heard music in the air

 

Dancing feet

 

Beat by beat

 

In an empty ballroom

 

All the walls were deep in shadow

 

Rich with dreams but old and bare

 

There was no one around yet

I seem to hear the sound of those feet

 

Dancing feet in this empty ballroom

 

Not long ago it was

Crowded with lovers

 

Is it so strange

That their echoes remain

 

Though it's just an empty ballroom

 

Dark and still beyond repair

 

As I peer through the gloom

I feel memories in this room

 

We were there

 

A happy pair

 

In this empty ballroom

 

 

Dancing feet
