Whiter Shade of Pale

We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kind of seasick
But the crowd called out for more

The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray

{Refrain}
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said there is no reason
And the truth is plain to see
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be

One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might just just have well been closed

{Refrain}

And so it was that later

<Procol Harum>< A Whiter Shade of Pale>

*The Procol Harum version is great, so is the Anne Lennox version...for a totally different taste !
