Rodgers And Hammerstein – When You're Driving Through The Moonlight lyrics

[Cinderella]
When you're driving through the moonlight on the highway
When you're driving through the moonlight to the dance
You are breathless with a wild anticipation,
of adventure and excitement and romance.

Then at last you see the tower of the palace
Silhouetted on the sky above the park
And below them is a row of lighted windows
Like a lovely diamond necklace in the dark!

[Portia (Stepsister 1)]
It looks that way,

[Joy (Stepsister 2)]
The way to say,

[Stepmother]
She talks as if she knows.

[Cinderella]
I do not know
These things are so.
I only just suppose...

I suppose that when you come into the ballroom
And the room itself is floating in the air
If you're suddenly confronted by His highness
You are frozen like a statue on the stair.

You're afraid he'll hear the way your heart is beating
And you know you mustn't make the first advance
You are seriously thinking of retreating!
Then you seem to hear him asking you to dance!
