A Whiter Shade of Pale
Surreal Symphony: Unveiling the Enigmatic Tale Behind Annie Lennox's Melodic Journey
Lyrics
We skipped the light fandango
We engaged in a lively and intricate dance
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
We performed acrobatics across the dance floor
I was feeling kind of sea-sick
I started feeling nauseous
And the crowd called out for more
The audience requested an encore
And the room was humming harder
The atmosphere intensified, making it more challenging to focus
As the ceiling flew away
The surroundings became surreal and disorienting
When we called out for another drink
We asked for another drink
But the waiter brought a tray
Instead, the waiter brought a tray
And so it was later
Subsequently
As the miller told his tale
While the miller narrated his story
That her face at first just ghostly
Her expression, initially pale and mysterious, became even more so
Turned a whiter shade of pale
Turning extremely pale
You said there is no reason
You claimed there's no justification
And the truth is plain to see
The truth is evident
But I wandered through my playing cards
I roamed through my deck of playing cards
And would not let her be
Refusing to let her go
And one of sixteen vestal virgins
Referring to one of sixteen pure and devoted women
Who were leaving for the coast
Who were departing for the coast
And although my eyes were open
Although I was observant, my perception was blurred
They might just as well be closed
It made no difference if my eyes were open or closed
And so it was later
Subsequently
As the miller told his tale
While the miller continued his narrative
That her face at first just ghostly
Her face, initially mysterious, turned extremely pale
Turned a whiter shade of pale
Turning extremely pale
And so it was later
Subsequently
As the miller told his tale
While the miller recounted his story
That her face at first just ghostly
Her face, initially mysterious, turned extremely pale
Turned a whiter shade of pale
Turning extremely pale
A whiter shade of pale
A very pale shade
Turned a whiter shade of pale
Turning a very pale shade
A whiter shade of pale
A very pale shade
