Katie Melua When You Taught Me How To Dance lyrics
When you taught me how to dance
Years ago with misty eyes
Every step and silent glance
Every move a sweet surprise
Someone must have taught you well
To beguile and to entrance
For that night you cast your spell
And you taught me how to dance
Like reflections in a lake
I recall what went before
As I give, I'll learn to take
And to be alone no more
Other lights may light my way
I may even find romance
But I won't forget that night
When you taught me how to dance
Cold winds blow
But up on those hills you find me
And I know
You're walking right behind me
When you taught me how to dance
Years ago with misty eyes
Every step and silent glance
Every move a sweet surprise
Someone must have taught you well
To beguile and to entrance
For that night you cast your spell
And you taught me how to dance
And you taught me how to dance.
This song is all about finding love, not a person to love but love itself, the feeling of being in love. In this song its almost like "dance" is love and it shares its characteristics, like when you are taught how to dance you cant forget it, and the same for love, regardless of the person. This is reflected in the film "Miss Potter", even though norman has died she still knows what love feels like, which is why she feels she can marry william in the end.
