Lyrics

People Came To Dance

The true tall tale of Aaron and Angela.
Inspired by the words of William Butler Yeats.

It seems like it was yesterday
There came to be a wedding day
And all were there, all were there
The land was white that Saturday
The snow had come from far away
To fill the air, fill the air

And when the preacher said ?Young man go kiss your bride?
The celebration in that church rang far and wide

Chorus
And the people came together/And the people came to dance
And they danced like all the waves upon the sea
And the people came together/And the people came to dance
And they danced like all the waves
Danced like all the waves upon the sea

She walked into the living room
He looked into her eyes
And she was beautiful, beautiful
The days were never long enough
The hours seemed to fly
But they were wonderful, wonderful

And as he stood to greet the lady that he loved
He held her in his arms, it was never long enough

Chorus

It?s three am, can?t sleep again
The rain is falling down again
And she?s not here, she?s not here
Everything his eyes can see
Is filled with all her memories
They?re all so clear, all so clear

And as he thinks about the day he lost his friend
He?s waiting for the day when they will meet again

Chorus
When the people came together/When the people came to dance
They will dance like all the waves upon the sea
When the people came together/When the people came to dance
They will danced like all the waves
Dance like all the waves upon the sea
