Cheek to Cheek (from the motion picture ”Top Hat”)

heaven, i'm in heaven,

and my heart beats so that i can hardly speak;

and i seem to find the happiness i seek

when we're out together dancing, cheek to cheek.

heaven, i'm in heaven,

and the cares that hang around me thro' the week

seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak

when we're out together dancing, cheek to cheek.

oh! i love to climb a mountain,

and to reach the highest peak,

but it doesn't thrill me half as much

as dancing cheek to cheek.

oh! i love to go out fishing

in a river or a creek,

but i don't enjoy it half as much

as dancing cheek to cheek.

dance with me

i want my arm about you;

the charm about you

will carry me thro' to heaven

i'm in heaven,

and my heart beats so that i can hardly speak;

and i seem to find the happiness i seek

when we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

oh! i love to climb a mountain,

and to reach the highest peak,

but it doesn't thrill me half as much

as dancing cheek to cheek.

oh! i love to go out fishing

in a river or a creek,

but i don't enjoy it half as much

as dancing cheek to cheek.

dance with me

i want my arm about you;

the charm about you

will carry me thro' to heaven

i'm in heaven,

and my heart beats so that i can hardly speak;

and i seem to find the happiness i seek

when we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
