I Dreamed a Dance Lyrics

[DIANA]
I saw you light the ballroom
With your sparkling eyes of blue
Graceful as an angel's wing
I dreamed a dance with you

You whispered slyly, softly
You told me you would be true
We spun around a thousand stars
I dreamed a dance with you

I know the night is dying dear
I know the day will dawn

[DIANA & GABE]
The dancers may disappear
Still the dance goes on

[GABE]
And on

[DIANA]
I'll wake alone tomorrow
The dream of our dance is through
But now until forever love
I'll live to dance with you
I'll dream my love
I'll live my love
And I'll die to dance with...
