Dance Dance Everybody Dance
Tim Hughes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bells are a ringing
Dance everyone dance
Come to the valley
Run through the clover
Harvest is over
Dance everyone dance
Under a full moon sky
Dance where the wine was born
Dance everyone dance
Whirl and turnabout
Lift up your arms and shout
Join hands and skip along
Dance everyone dance
Turn left, turn right, hold tight
Lift your feet your heart will follow
Lift your voice till they holler
Lift your wings like the swallow
Fly away, free today
Dance, dance everybody dance
Dance, dance, dance, dance
Dance where the corn was high
Under a full moon sky
Dance where the wine was born
Dance everyone dance
Whirl and turnabout
Lift up your arms and shout
Join hands and skip along
Dance everyone dance
Turn left, turn right, hold tight
Lift your feet your heart will follow
Lift your voice till they holler
Lift your wings like the swallow
Fly away, free today
Dance, dance everybody dance
Dance, dance, dance, dance
Dance where the corn was high
Under a full moon sky
Dance where the wine was born
Dance everyone dance
Whirl and turnabout
Lift up your arms and shout
Join hands and skip along
Dance everyone dance
Turn left, turn right, hold tight
Lift your feet your heart will follow
Lift your voice till they holler
Lift your wings like the swallow
Fly away, free today
Dance, dance everybody dance
Dance, dance, dance, dance
Everybody dance
The song "Dance, Dance, Everybody Dance" by Tim Hughes is an energetic call to celebrate and rejoice. The lyrics describe a valley where voices are singing, the bells are ringing, and the harvest is over, and invites everyone to dance. The song creates a vivid picture of a joyful and liberating experience.
The lyrics also encourage listeners to dance freely and follow their heart. The lines, "Lift up your arms and shout, join hands and skip along" and "lift your wings like the swallow, fly away, free today" suggest that the act of dancing can be a form of liberation and letting go of worries. The imagery of turning left and right, holding tight, and lifting up your feet further add to the sense of abandon and celebration that the song encourages.
Overall, "Dance, Dance, Everybody Dance" is an invitation to let go of inhibitions, come together, and celebrate the harvest of life with joy and freedom.
