The sounds spill out like water
Laughing, singing without words
Hair spilling in the wind I create

Turn, turn, turn
A dervish as I dance
The thrill of moving takes me

There is sorrow below the joy
Bitter below the sweet
But joy is now and it fills me up
Why should I worry about pain?

I'll worry later, not for now
Now is for life and living
Dance with my partner, anyone who wants
I'll dance with another as happy as you

I'll feel lonely when the night is through
Don't I always? I'm used to it
I wonder if that will ever change

Maybe not. But who cares?
Tonight is for dancing
I'll laugh 'til I can laugh no more
