There may be trouble ahead

But while there's music and moonlight (moonlight and music) and love and romance

Let's face the music and dance

Before the fiddlers have fled,

Before they ask us to pay the bill, and while we still have that chance

Let's face the music and dance

Soon, we'll be without the moon, humming a different tune - and then...

There may be teardrops to shed

So (But) while there's music and moonlight (moonlight and music) and love and romance

(Let's face the music and dance, dance)

(Let's face the music - let's here that music)

Let's face the music and dance
