For the Dancing and the Dreaming

I'll swim and sail on savage seas With never a fear of drowning And gladly ride the waves of life If you will marry me No scorching sun nor freezing cold Will stop me on my journey If you will promise me your heart And love me for eternity My dearest one, my darling dear Your mighty words astound me But I've no need for mighty deeds When I feel your arms around me But I would bring you rings of gold I'd even sing you poetry And I would keep you from all harm If you would stay beside me I have no use for rings of gold I care not for your poetry I only want your hand to hold I'd only want you near me La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (la-la) La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (la-la) La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, you may La-la-la-la-la-la-la To love and kiss, and sweetly hold For the dancing and the dreaming Through all life's sorrows and delights I'll keep your love beside me I'll swim and sail a savage seas We will never fear of drowning Gladly ride the waves so white If you will marry me
