two columns

OPENER - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
*I know I'd stand in line until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me
And if we go someplace to dance I know that there's a chance You won't be leaving with me

Allemande and weave
**And afterwards we'd drop into a quiet little place
And have a drink or two
And then I'd go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like, "I love you"


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*I practice every day to find some clever lines to say to make the meaning come true
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late and I'm alone with you


**The time is right, your perfume fills my head
The stars get red and oh, the night's so blue.


FIGURE (twice for heads, twice for sides)    Plus, corner progression

Heads (sides) square thru 4 hands around
and then you dosado
Swing thru, boys trade,
boy run right, bend the line
Boy walk, girl dodge
Hinge, fan the top, slide thru
Swing your corner and all promenade
And then I'd go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like, "I love you"

MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 2

4 ladies chain, turn the girl
Rollaway and circle left
4 ladies rollaway; circle
Allemande and weave
I can see it in your eyes that you despise the same old lies
You heard the night before
And though it's just a line to you from me it's true
And never seemed so right before


TAG

And then I'd go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like, "I love you"
