Whiter Shade Of Pale

We skipped the light fandango

Turned some cartwheels across the floor

I was feeling kind of seasick

When the crowd called out for more

The room was humming harder

And the ceiling flew away

When I called out for another drink

The waiter brought a tray

And so it was later

When the miller told this tale

That her face at first just ghostly

Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, "There is no reason

And the truth is plain to see"

That I wandered through my playing cards

And could not let her be, no

One of 16 vestal virgins

Who was leaving for the coast

And although my eyes were open

They might just as well have been closed

And so it was later

When the miller told this tale

He said that her face at first just ghostly

And then turned a whiter shade of pale

And so it was later

When the miller told this tale

He said that her face at first just ghostly

Then turned a whiter shade of pale

Oh, just a whiter shade of pale

Then turned a whiter shade of pale
