I Could Have Danced All Night

[ELIZA]
Bed, bed, I couldn't go to bed
My head's too light to try to set it down
Sleep, sleep, I couldn't sleep tonight
Not for all the jewels in the crown

I could have danced all night
I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things
I've never done before
I'll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he
Began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced all night!

[SERVANT 1]
It's after three now

[SERVANT 2]
Don't you agree now?

[SERVANTS]
Shе ought to be in bed

[ELIZA]
I could have dancеd

[SERVANT 1]
You're tired out

[ELIZA]
All night!

[SERVANT 2]
You must be dead

[ELIZA]
I could have danced

[SERVANT 1]
You face is drawn

[ELIZA]
All night!

[SERVANT 2]
You eyes are red

[ELIZA]
And still have begged for more

[SERVANTS]
Now say good night, please
Turn out the light, please
It's really time for you to be in bed

[ELIZA]
I could have spread

[SERVANT 1]
Do come along

[ELIZA]
My wings

[SERVANT 1]
Do as you're told

[ELIZA]
And done a thou—

[SERVANT 2]
Or Mrs. Pearce

[ELIZA]
Sand things

[SERVANT 2]
Is apt to scold

[ELIZA]
I've never done before

[SERVANTS]
You're up too late, Miss
And sure as fate, Miss
You'll catch a cold

[ELIZA]
I'll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know

[SERVANT 1]
Put down your book

[ELIZA]
When he

[SERVANT 2]
The work will keep

[ELIZA]
Began to dance

[SERVANTS]
Now settle down

[ELIZA]
With me

[SERVANTS]
And go to sleep

[ELIZA]
I could have danced, danced, danced all night!

[MRS. PEARCE]
I understand, dear
It's all been grand, dear
But now it's time to sleep

[ELIZA]
I could have danced all night
I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things
I've never done before
I'll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he
Began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced
All night!
