Irving Berlin
You’re Easy to Dance With / Change Partners / Cheek to Cheek
[Part I: You're Easy to Dance With]
[Intro]
You know, every time I hear that Fred Astaire beat
I always feel like dancing
Shall we dance? Thank you
[Verse 1]
I could dance nightly just holding you tightly
My sweet
I could keep right on because you're so light on
My feet
[Chorus]
You're easy to dance with
[Verse 2]
There is no doubt in the way we stand out in
The crowd
Though it's called dancing, to me, it's romancing
Out loud
[Chorus]
You're easy to dance with
[Verse 3]
Loving you the way I do
Makes you easy to dance with
That is why I'm always right on the beat
[Verse 4]
All those charms
In one man's arms
Makes you easy to dance with
I can hardly keep my mind on my feet, woo
[Outro]
Let's dance forever
Come on, say we'll never be through
It's so easy to dance with you
[Part II: Change Partners]
[Verse 1]
Must you dance every dance
With the same fortunate man?
You have danced with him
Since the music began
Won't you change partners
And dance with me?
[Verse 2]
Must you dance quite so close
With your lips touching his face?
Can't you see I'm longing to be in his place?
Won't you change partners
And dance with me?
[Verse 3]
Ask him to sit this one out
And while you're alone
I'll tell the waiter to tell him he's wanted on the telephone
[Verse 4]
You've been locked in his arms
Ever since heaven-knows-when
Won't you change partners? And then
You may never want to change partners again
[Interlude]
Yeah, uh-huh
[Part III: Cheek to Cheek]
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Heaven, I'm in Heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 3]
Yes, 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
[Verse 4]
And 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
[Outro]
Dance with me, I want my arm about you
The charm about you will carry me through
To heaven, yes, 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
Once again romancing
Beautiful music
Dangerous rhythm
When we're out together dancing to Fred Astaire
