Dancing on the ceiling

Ella Fitzgerald

Transposer:

Intro Verse:) The world is lyrical because a miracle Has brought my lover to me; Though she’s some other place her face I see. At night I creep in bed and never sleep in bed But look above in the air And to my greatest joy my love is there. (Melody:) D5+ She dan - ces o - ver - head on the ceiling near my bed In my sight all through the night; I try to hide in vain underneath my counterpane But there’s my love up there above. I whisper "Go away my lover it’s not fair" But I’m so grateful to discover that she’s still there. I love my ceil -ing more since it is a dancing floor Just for my love.

La chanson évoque un amour si fort qu'il semble transcender la réalité. Le narrateur, incapable de se reposer, rêve de sa bien-aimée qui, bien qu'éloignée physiquement, danse au-dessus de lui comme si elle était là. Il se cache sous ses couvertures, mais il ne peut s’empêcher de ressentir sa présence joyeuse qui illumine sa nuit. Sa chambre, autrefois un simple espace, se transforme en une scène où son amour s’épanouit, renforçant encore plus la beauté de leur lien. Dans cette danse éthérée, il exprime des sentiments à la fois de gratitude et de désir, rendant la situation délicate mais merveilleuse.
