I Won't Dance

I Won't Dance - Stacey Kent

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 my feet do things they should do

You know what you're lovely

And so what I'm lovely

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

When you dance you're charming and you're gentle

'Spec'lly when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't purely mental

For aven rest us I'm not asbestos

I won't dance why should I

I won't dance how could I

I won't dance merci beau coup

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance

When you dance you're charming and you're gentle

'Spec'lly when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't purely mental

For aven rest us I'm not asbestos

That's why

I won't dance why should I

I won't dance how could I

I won't dance merci beau coup

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance
