Do I Hear a Waltz - Sammy Davis, Jr.

Do I hear a waltz?

Very odd, but I hear a waltz

There isn’t a band

And I don’t understand it at all

I can’t hear a waltz

Oh my Lord, there it goes again

Why is nobody dancing in the street?

Can’t they hear the beat?

Magical, mystical miracle

Can it be?

Is it true?

Things are impossibly lyrical

Is it me?

No, it’s you

I do hear a waltz

I see you and I hear a waltz

It’s what I’ve been waiting for all my life

To hear a waltz

Do I hear a waltz?

La-da-dee, da-da

Such lovely Blue Danube-y music

How can you be be still?

I do hear a waltz

There it goes again

There’s no dancing in the street

Can’t they hear the beat?

Roses are dancing with peonies

Yes, it’s true, don’t you see?

Everything’s suddenly Viennese

Can’t be you, must be me

Do I hear a waltz?

I want more than to hear a waltz

I want you to share it 'cause, oh, boy

Do I hear a waltz
