Janis Ian When The Party`s Over Lyrics

When The Party`s Over Lyrics

Would you like to learn to sing?  

  Would you like to sing my song?  

  Would you like to learn to love me best of all?  

  Anyone can learn the words  

  And the melody's so plain  

  This is my song to bring you back again  

  I'll teach you how to sing and dance  

  With a song and dance routine  

  And when the party's over  

  You can fall in love with me  

  Would you like to learn to tango?  

  Do you dance the light fandango?  

  Teach you how before we're done  

  Anyone can make it two  

  Any two can turn to one  

  And the melody's lost before the song's begun  

  Well we sound so good together  

  And so poorly sung alone  

  Your harmony's an open breeze into my sheltered home  

  I can teach you how to sing and dance  

  With a song and dance routine  

  And when the party's over  

  You can fall in love with me
