The Floral Dance - Tony Mason-Cox/Serge Ermoll[00:00:00]

As I walked home on a summer's night[00:00:10]

When stars in Heaven were shining bright[00:00:13]

Far away from the footlight's glare[00:00:16]

Into the sweet and scented air[00:00:19]

Of a quaint old Cornish town[00:00:21]

Born from afar on the gentle breeze[00:00:29]

Mingling with murmur of distant seas[00:00:32]

All the tones of an old world dance[00:00:35]

Played by the village band perchance[00:00:37]

From the calm air came floating down[00:00:40]

I thought I could hear the curious tone[00:00:48]

Of the cornet clarinet and big trombone[00:00:51]

Fiddle cello big bass drum[00:00:54]

Bassoon flute and euphonium[00:00:56]

Far away as in a trance[00:00:59]

I heard the sound of the floral dance[00:01:02]

Then I heard such a bustling and prancing[00:01:07]

And I could see the whole village was dancing[00:01:10]

In and out of the houses they came[00:01:13]

Old folk young folk all the same[00:01:15]

In that quaint old Cornish town[00:01:18]

Every boy took a girl by the waist[00:01:26]

And carried her off in the tremendous haste[00:01:28]

Whether they knew one another I know not[00:01:31]

Whether they cared the four I care not[00:01:34]

But they kissed as they danced along[00:01:37]

There was the band with the curious tone[00:01:45]

Of the cornet clarinet and big trombone[00:01:47]

Fiddle cello big bass drum[00:01:50]

Bassoon flute and euphonium[00:01:53]

Each one making the most of his chance[00:01:56]

All together in the floral dance[00:01:58]

I felt so lonely standing there[00:02:20]

And I could only stand and stare[00:02:25]

For I had no made with me[00:02:29]

Lonely I should have to be[00:02:32]

In that quaint old Cornish town[00:02:37]

When suddenly hastening down the lane[00:02:45]

A figure I knew I saw quite plain[00:02:48]

With outstretched towns I washed along[00:02:50]

And carried her into that merry thrown[00:02:53]

And fiddle and all went dancing down[00:02:55]

We danced to the band with the curious tone[00:03:03]

Of the cornet clarinet and big trombone[00:03:06]

Fiddle cello big bass drum[00:03:09]

Bassoon flute and euphonium[00:03:11]

Each one making the most of his chance[00:03:14]

All together in the floral dance[00:03:17]

Dancing here prancing there[00:03:20]

Jigging jogging everywhere[00:03:22]

Up and down and round the town[00:03:25]

Hurrah for the Cornish floral dance[00:03:28]
