It only happens when I dance with you,
That trip to heaven 'till the dance is through . . .
With no one else do the heavens seem quite so near,
Why does it happen dear, only with you?

Two cheeks together can be so divine,
But only when those cheeks are yours and mine . . .
I've danced with dozens of others the whole night through,
But the thrill that comes with spring, when anything could happen,
That only happens with you . . .

< instrumental verse >

I've danced with dozens of others the whole night through,
But the thrill that comes with spring, when anything could happen,
That only happens with you . . .
