And my mom would always sit up and wait
She would be ready but she's always make them wait
My sister went there on a Saturday
But if I asked her I wonder if she would
Where the big bands used to play
I can see them in the moonlight
Come dancing
Part of my childhood died, just died
Come dancing
And there's a car park where the Palais used to stand
Before that they put up a bowling alley
Out of my window
Come on sister, have yourself a ball
Don't be afraid to come dancing
All for a cuddle and a peck on the cheek
Why not come dancing
Kissing by the garden gate
He didn't know the night would end up in frustration
She knows they get away with things she never could
When my sister used to get home late
In the hallway, in anticipation
The day they knocked down the Palais
Every Saturday night
All her boyfriends used to come and call
Come dancing
It always ended up in a big row
My sister's married and she lives on an estate
Now I'm grown up and playing in a band
He'd end up blowing all his wages for the week
And when they said come dancing
Two silhouettes
That's where the big bands used to come and play
Come dancing
My sister always did
Just like the Palais on a Saturday
On the site that used to be the local Palais
My sister should have come in a midnight
And all her friends will come dancing
But she used to come home and say
The day they knocked down the Palais
My sister stood and cried
Her daughters go out, now it's her turn to wait
Another Saturday, another date
That's how they did it when I was just a kid
My sister used to go to the Palais
It's only natural
It's only natural?
