Where do I go to my love, my one
To find your dancing soul, when day is done
I dance to your music, I hear your song
‘Tis a merry jig, I surrender, dancing along
Like a swallow on high on a mid-summer’s night
I dance, I dance, and my mind takes flight
You won’t be caught, ’tis against your will
But the song and the dance you are playing still
The music is wicked, the rhythm is cruel
The words of the song say I’m the fool
Faster and faster I blindly twirl
Your cadence enticing, my dizzy heart awhirl
I know you’re not real, I know you’re not true
Still I choose to dance this merry jig with you
And as the fiddle’s forlorn last note is played
I know I should be, but I’m not sorry I stayed.
