Dancing on the Ceiling

1930
Music by Richard Rodgers
Lyrics by Lorenz Hart

Written for the 1930 London musical Evergreen

“She dances overhead
On the ceiling near my bed
In my sight
All through the night”….

“I love my ceiling more
Since it is a dancing floor
Just for my love”

(not to be confused with the 1986 hit by Lionel Richie)
