Lyrics for A Whiter Shade of Pale by Annie Lennox:
| | | Artist: | Annie Lennox |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | A Whiter Shade of Pale | | | | Date Added: | 24/10/2007 | | Views: | 85 | | | | Lyrics: | We skipped the light Fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kind of
seasick
But the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the
ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray
/>
And so it was that later
As the Miller told his tale
That her face, at
first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
------ organ solo ------
/>
She said there is no reason
And the truth is plain to see
But I wandered
through my playing cards
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
/>
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might just as
well've been closed
And so it was that later
As the Miller told his tale
/>
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
And so
it was.... (fade)
/>
------------------------------------------------------------------
There is an
unpublished second verse
that they included in concerts:
She said "I'm home
on shore leave"
Though in truth we were at sea
So I took her by the looking glass
/>
And forced her to agree
Saying, "You must be the mermaid
Who took Neptune for a
ride"
But she smiled at me so sadly
That my anger straight 'way died | | | |
