The Fantasticks - Round and Round Lyrics

1960 Off-Broadway
The Fantasticks the Musical - Round and Round Lyrics


EL GALLO:
Round and round,
Till the break of day.
Candles glow,
Fiddles play.
Why not be wild if we feel that way?
Reckless and terribly gay!

Round and round,
'Neath a magic spell.
Velvet gown,
Pink lapel.
Life is a colorful carousel.
Reckless and terribly gay!

LUISA:
I'm ready anytime.
If you'll take me, I'm
Ready to go!

So show the way to me.
I will try to be
Ready to go!

EL GALLO:
I seem to see Venice:
We're on a lagoon.
A gondolier's crooning
A gondola tune.
The air makes your hair
Billow blue in the moon!

LUISA:
I could swoon!

EL GALLO:
You're so blue in the moon!

We'll just dance!
We'll kick up our heels to music and dance!
Until my head reels with music.
Just like a lovely real romance.
All we'll do is daily dance.

All we'll do is just dance.
All we'll do is just dance.
All we'll do is just

EL GALLO:
Round and round,
Till the break of day.
Candles glow,
Fiddles play.
Why not be wild if we feel that way?
Reckless and terribly gay!

LUISA:
I'm ready anytime.
If you'll take me, I'm
Ready to go!

So show the way to me.
I will try to be
Ready to go!

EL GALLO:
I seem to see Athens, it's terribly chic.
Atop the Acrop'lis, it's terribly Greek.
There's Venus, Adonis, 'n us
Cheek to cheek.

LUISA:
Oh how chic!

EL GALLO:
To be Greek cheek to cheek!

We'll just dance!
We'll kick up our heels to music and dance!
Until my head reels with music.
Just like a lovely real romance.
All we'll do is daily dance.

All we'll do is just dance.
All we'll do is just dance.
All we'll do is just --

EL GALLO:
Round and round,
'Neath a magic spell.
Velvet gown,
Pink lapel.
Life is a colorful carousel.
Reckless and terribly gay!

I'm ready anytime.
If you'll take me, I'm
Ready to go!

So show the way to me.
I will try to be
Ready to go!

We'll be in Bengasi or maybe Bombay.
I understand Indja is terribly gay.
The natives assemble on feast day and play

With their snakes?

What a racket it makes!

We'll
Just
Dance!

We'll kick up our heels to music and dance!
Until my head reels with music.
Just like a lovely real romance.

All we'll do is daily
I can see the friendly natives!
All we'll do is just dance.
All we'll do is just dance.
All we'll do is just
Round and round in a magic spell

All we'll do is just
All we'll do is just
All we'll do is just
All we'll do is just
All we'll do is just...
Dance!
