They can come take it all away   Break your heart by the light of day   Drown your love in a distant bay so lonely      See the ships heading for the rocks   See the time melting over the clocks   There's a light shadows all the rocks that saves me   It saves me      That's why I wander and follow la vie dansante   On the night wind that takes me just where I want   That's all I want   La vie dansante      Miss the beat if you close your eyes   Every night wears a new disguise   And I live when a new surprise surrenders      Feel it all with a willing heart   Every stop there's a place to start   If you know how to play the part with feeling   I play with feeling      Why don't you wander and follow la vie dansante?   On the night wind that takes you just where you want   That's all you want   La vie dansante      That's why I wander and follow la vie dansante   On the night wind that takes me just where I want   That's all I want   La vie dansante      Why don't you wander and follow la vie dansante?   On the night wind that takes you just where you want   That's all you want   La vie dansante
