My soul was a-swayin' to the beat of your heart
And your lips were sayin' that we won’t dance apart
Now someone else is holding you the way I did the-eh-eh eh-en
So I’ll never, no I’ll never, never dance again., whoa oh no Oh I’ve danced with others just to show I don’t care
But my arms discovered that the thrill wasn’t there
Unless my arms are holding you the way I did the-eh-eh eh-en
So I’ll never, no I’ll never, never dance again whoa oh no
I’ll stay off the dance floor till mem’ries grow di-i-i-i-m
'cause my heart would break to see you take every step with him
I’ll survive seein' ya sighin' on that shoulder of his
Oh how I’ve been cryin' knowin' how sweet that is So while that guy is holding you the way I did the-eh-eh eh-en
I will never, no no I’ll never never dance again-oh I’ll never
No, darlin' no I will never no no I’ll never never dance again
No, darlin' no I will never no no I’ll never never dance again
Say baby no I will never whoa-oh I’ll never never dance again
Hey baby no I will never no-o-o-o-o-o-o-o I’ll never never dance again
NO BABY NO I will never
I haven't heard this song by Bobby in about 50 years. I always thought this was one of his best, along with Wild One and others. This sure brings back some really good Old Rock n Roll Days.
For me one of Bobby's best along with Volare, Sway, and Forget Him. This particular song was a good example of how strong his voice was back in that era. I have seen many of his shows with Frankie, Fabian and on occassion Chubby(The Golden Boys of Bandstand) but I have never heard him do this song in the last fifteen years during any of these performances. Although, he still has a good voice, this song may present limitations for him or maybe it just doesn't fit the shows. Ron
A 1962 gem by Rydell, if I could sing, I would take Bobby Rydell's voice. My favorite song by him, along with "Forget Him", I was 14 at the time. If I could relive the 60's, the songs were all about romantics and drama of love.
