Shall we dance original pen and ink and watercolour illustration by Rosie Brooks

"Shall We Dance" is a song from the musical "The King and I," with music by Richard Rodgers and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II. Here are the lyrics to the song:

We've just been introduced I do not know you well But when the music started Something drew me to your side

So many men and girls Are in each other's arms It made me think we might be Similarly occupied

Shall we dance? On a bright cloud of music, shall we fly? Shall we dance? Shall we then say, "Goodnight and mean goodbye"?

Or perchance When the last little star has left the sky Shall we still be together With our arms around each other? And shall you be my new romance?

On the clear understanding that this kind of thing can happen Shall we dance? Shall we dance? Shall we dance?

On the clear understanding that this kind of thing can happen Shall we dance? Shall we dance? Shall we dance?
