The hands on the wall barely move at all
When I'm waiting to be with you.
But time slips away whenever we go out and play

And I can't seem to hold on tight enough.

Then I look out the window and what do I see?

But my friends, they're all smiling at me.
So I hold out my hand, ask if you'd like to dance,
And smile for a while, dance with me.

Dansez avec moi, gentille fille.

The hands on the wall barely move at all

When I'm waiting to be with you.
But time slips away whenever we go out and play
And I can't seem to hold on tight enough.


My friends are here with me in a land of make-believe
And it's real enough to hold all our dreams.

So I hold out my hand, ask if you'd like to dance,
And smile for a while, dance with me.
Dansez avec moi, gentille fille.
