Whirling Dervish

from Three Hands Clapping by D. Michael Harris

/

lyrics

And I had no rhythm when I first met you
But you called me out onto the floor
Just these clumsy feet and no dancing shoes
And my heart was heading for the door

But you caught my eye with your mysterious ways
And you took my hand and you compelled me to stay
As the music swelled I thought I heard you say
That tomorrow’s gonna be my dancing day

And You, you, you came into my life
Like a whirling dervish
Knocking over everything
And dancing like a ray of light
On the water’s surface
I’ll follow you as you dance

And I had no style and I had no poise
And I kept on fumbling the beat
But you didn’t mind when I kept stepping on your toes
With my stumbling heart and heavy feet

But you caught my eye with your mysterious ways
And you took my hand and you compelled me to stay
As the music swelled I thought I heard you say
That tomorrow’s gonna be my dancing day

And You, you, you came into my life
Like a whirling dervish
Knocking over everything
And dancing like a ray of light
On the water’s surface
I’ll follow you as you dance

Spin around and around and around and around
Spin around and around and around x 2

And they say King David liked to dance before the Lord
Well he must have known a thing or two
A secret step to match his secret chord
For a secret song he learned from you

But you caught my eye with your mysterious ways
And you took my hand and you compelled me to stay
As the music swelled I thought I heard you say
That tomorrow’s gonna be my dancing day

And You, you, you came into my life
Like a whirling dervish
Knocking over everything
And dancing like a ray of light
On the water’s surface
I’ll follow you as you dance
