A Whiter Shade of Pale (Procol Harum cover) Lyrics
We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels cross the floor
I was feeling kinda 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 waitress brought a tray
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first so ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale
She said, "there is no reason
For the truth is plain to see."
But I wondered why my playing cards
Just would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Were leaving for the coast
And though both my eyes were open
They might just as well've been closed
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first so ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale...
Turned cartwheels cross the floor
I was feeling kinda 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 waitress brought a tray
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first so ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale
For the truth is plain to see."
But I wondered why my playing cards
Just would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Were leaving for the coast
And though both my eyes were open
They might just as well've been closed
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first so ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale...
