An Empty Ballroom (12-23-53)

An Empty Ballroom - Ella Fitzgerald (埃拉·菲茨傑拉德)

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
