A Whiter Shade Of Pale Lyrics

A Whiter Shade Of Pale lyrics

We skipped the light fandango 

 Turned cartwheels cross the floor  

 I was feeling kind of seasick 

 The crowd called out for more 

 The room was humming harder 

 As the ceiling flew away 

 When we called outfor another drink 

 But the waiter brought a tray 

 

 And so it was later 

 As the miller told his tale 

 That her face at first just ghostly 

 Turned a whiter shade of pale 

 

 You said there is no reason 

 And the truth is plain to see 

 But I wander through my playing cards 

 And would not let it be 

 I'm one of the sixteen virgins

 Who are leaving for the coast

 And although my eyes were open 

 They might just as well been closed 

 

 And so it was later 

 As the miller told his tale 

 That her face at first just ghostly 

 Turned a whiter shade of pale 

 

 A whiter shade of pale 

 Turned a whiter shade of pale 

 A whiter shade of pale
