ELLA
He was tall, very tall
And his eyes were clear and blue
He was slim, very slim
In his coat of snowy hue
When he walked across the ballroom floor
He was like a thing divine
And all the ladies turned their heads
And naturally I turned mine
The chandeliers were shooting stars;
The drums and horns and soft guitars
Were sounding more like nightingales;
The window curtains blew like sails;
And I was floating just above the floor
Feeling slightly taller than before
He was tall, very tall
And his eyes were clear and blue…
He Was Tall was written by Oscar Hammerstein II & Richard Rodgers & Rodgers & Hammerstein.
The Original Broadway Cast of Cinderella released He Was Tall on Tue May 07 2013.
“He Was Tall” was originally intended for Rodgers & Hammerstein’s The King and I (1951), as an introduction to the song “Hello, Young Lovers,” in which the schoolteacher Anna talks about her late husband, Tom.
