Celtic Woman - Ballroom Of Romance Lyrics






On summer nights when the barn is high
The stars are twinkling in the sky
Take a walk by the riverside
And let the music be your guide

Follow where the pathway takes you
On your bike or arm in arm
Through the crossroad, to the dance hall
Down the road to Murphy's barn

We plant the seeds and till the soil
We pray for rain and pray for sun
Now it's time to stop a while
Forget your worries everyone

Once the barn was full of grain
Then old Murphy took the chance
Cleaned it out and hired a band
Now it's the ballroom of romance

Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Leave your troubles at the door
We will dance until the morning light
Come take my hand and we'll take the floor

Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Around the floor, now one two three
We will dance until the break of dawn
So take my hand and dance with me

The week is over, work is done
So now it's time to have some fun
The place is old and there's money owed
Tonight forget that heavy load

The sky is clear, without a cloud
The air, it hums with music loud
The moon is full and shining bright
They'll come from far and wide tonight

Will I get to steal a dance
With the one who puts me in a trance?
Now, at least, you get to dance
Down at the ballroom of romance

Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Leave your troubles at the door
We will dance until the morning light
Come take my hand and we'll take the floor

Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Around the floor, now one two three
We will dance until the break of dawn
So take my hand and dance with me

Shined his boots and combed his hair
Chosen something fine to wear
By cap and glove, could this be love?
Is there magic in the air?

The one that chases every day
Now is lost for words to say
To the girl in the flowing dress
This night they never will forget

Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Leave your troubles at the door
We will dance until the morning light
Come take my hand and we'll take the floor

Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Around the floor, now one two three
We will dance until the break of dawn
So take my hand and dance with me

Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Leave your troubles at the door
We will dance until the morning light
Come take my hand and we'll take the floor

Whack for the danna, swing your partner
Around the floor, now one two three
We will dance until the break of dawn
So take my hand and dance with me

  3. D.... M....

    Not all cultures are equal. Awesome :)

  4. K.... G....

    I ofgicially love this song

  5. R.... O....

    Celtic Woman - Ballroom Of Romance (Live From Johnstown Castle, Wexford, Ireland/2018)
    https://youtu.be/-P1wyDW7BOQ

  6. M.... D....

    🎩🌹 😉

  7. a.... ....

    "live". Yeah sure.

  8. S.... ....

    Beautiful song!

  9. L.... ....

    New girls! They purty! Less swank than the old group, but they're so sweet and girly! I'm in lurve!

  10. J.... M....

    Amando ouvir do Brasil.
    ❤🎧☺

  11. g.... ....

    what in the leprechaun music?!?!

    g.... ....

    What in ? Best you don't post until you make sense !

  12. R.... ....

    The violinist lady freaks me out. she looks like she wants to sing, but she doesnt. So i'm feeling like shes mute or something i'm all confused!!!

    R.... ....

    She is a violinist. She does not sing in the show. Too difficult for you to grasp ?

  13. J.... H....

    I am only 1/4 Irish, love those Irish woman/girl singers. The melody hits me in the heart and all that comes out is love!

  14. P.... A....

    The new ladies are terrific but bring back Lisa Kelly, Chloe, Lisa Lambe, Meav and Orla

    P.... A....

    They will never come back. Get over it. Besides, the current lineup is the best by far imo. There is a chemistry among these 4 off and on stage which the other line-ups did not have. I have all their CD's, and DVD's and have seen them live. Ancient Land, best line up, best album, best show. This is what CW should have always been. Previous shows, far too many pop ballads ! Much more Irish now

  15. B.... C....

    14. What is the name of a musical instrument in seconds

  16. L.... F....

    I am from asia i like irish music much better than those vulgar rap and hip hop music.

  17. A.... ....

    I feel like crying because celtic woman has recently been blocking their videos in my country Colombia south America 😢😢😢 i don't know why but some videos i used to see and have in a playlist for example the parting glass are now blocked to my country. I really felt that like a punch to my gut because it's kinda preventing us for listening to this beautiful music 😭😭😭😭 please celtic woman unblock those videos again for my country pleaseee

  18. R.... S....

    Me encanta. Con desafinaciones y todo 😉

  19. M.... B....

    ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😀😀😀Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱

  20. K.... A....

    I love this so much<3

  21. K.... K....

    I enjoy listening to the music

  22. N.... I....

    I don't recognize any of the girls anymore... ... .... What did I miss in 2 years?

  23. C.... H....

    God these women could out sing a angel choir.....perfection personified

  24. e.... ....

    Sounds like an old Appalachian hoe down.

  25. A.... H....

    love is divine 💯

  26. A.... ....

    Is that Ryan reynolds?

  27. W.... S....

    All the ladies of Celtic women thank you put so much joy in my heart.i love Irish music noning sweeter.you Ladies so beautiful.blow you all kisses

  28. M.... D....

    I think the dancing added to the video hope to see more

  29. j.... ....

    Where are the younger women to replace the women who retired? In J-Pop and K-Pop girl bands when women “graduate” i.e. retire from performing they get replaced by younger women so the music does not die.

  30. M.... H....

    Wow, The black haired lass looks alittle like Andrea Corr. like I said Ireland produces the most beautiful woman in the world.

    M.... H....

    Bold assumption based on 3 hand picked woman selected based on their asethetics.

  31. V.... S....

    I really loved this song .. makes me feel wanna to get up and dance. 😄😲😱😍💃

  32. R.... B....

    Perfect ♥

  33. G.... G....

    I will be seeing these gorgeous ladies in April of 2020!

  34. K.... G....

    Are they lip syncing?

  35. G.... B....

    Very elegant ladies that have alot of soul in their life..

  36. W.... W....

    i read now comments, and i am amazing. I started listening 4 months ago
    and me very liked that group. I liked the way they sing
    . and although I am from Russia there is something in their execution that made me think about
    everything. that I used to be a gamer after that I thought what made me look at the world differently

  37. M.... G....

    What's the meaning of "Whack fol the dah"?

    M.... G....

    It's lilting, like singing "la-di-dah" or something like that.

    M.... G....

    @Ggdivhjkjl oh, thank you 🤗

  38. J.... L....

    Love their music!

  39. W.... B....

    A OK.............................

  40. T.... R....

    Bitte, ihr müßt nach Poyenberg in Schlewig-hostei *kiss kiss ´kiss*

  41. S.... ....

    Is this the red woman from Game of Thrones? :D

    S.... ....

    Nein, sehr geehrte liebe Samantha. Sie ähneln einander einfach. :)

  42. D.... F....

    Dia duit mo bandia draíochta, tá sé in am duit foghlaim conas do chumhacht a úsáid, damhsa a choinneáil sna coillte, cabhróidh sé le cumhacht a fháil

  43. G.... A....

    Eu acho que sou único br a gosta disso 😂😂

  44. s.... ....

    I honestly love their music. Their song, Tír na nÓg, is the reason I became a fan of Celtic music.

  45. T.... R....

    Wow. With this song you have to come to "Irish Folk Music Festival Poyenberg". It's the greatest Festival in northern Germany. In 2020 it is the 20th birthday of it ... This song is so great, you're are so great ...

  46. D.... B....

    I just love EVERYTHING Celtic Woman does, the beautiful voices,bright beautiful smiles, ( and the ladies being so beautiful certainly doesn't hurt anything).
    It warms my heart every time I watch one of their videos

  47. S.... B....

    I’m shanebearddj I’m biggest fan awesome music ever

  48. A.... H....

    Been with them since the beginning and grew up listen to their music as a young teen all the way up until now. Really do miss the first original gang, but just like the flowing waters, things will always change. I wish this new group all the luck! They are pretty amazing....but, why wouldn't they be? It's Celtic Woman!! <3

    A.... H....

    You are dead right

  49. d.... b....

    not celtic women,, its a rip off like modern queen

  50. R.... V....

    Really a nice performance! Like the interaction of the male dancers. I love the first girls and thought the show could never be as good as the first ones but it’s seems to even get better as the years go by!

    R.... V....

    You are absolutely right. I love how in recent years they've actually let the dancers come out and do their own thing to showcase what they are best at. Besides dancing they are also good at singing too. Since the Deluxe version of the album came out I keep putting Orinoco Flow and Newgrange on repeat. The dancers voices go along perfectly with the girls

  51. J.... ....

    I love Celtic Women. It would be nice to see the original lineup back for a reunion.

  52. J.... M....

    Awesome! 🇨🇦😊

  53. W.... S....

    Celtic Womann , Ballroom Of Romance, ist eine schöne Musik und Tanz 💕👍🌹

  54. J.... P....

    This song is so wickedly addictive. Who's with me on hitting the repeat button multiple times ?

  55. L.... B....

    Saw the tour and this was by far the most fun of the songs! We clapped, cheered, laughed and it was honestly so precious. 💚💛 🇮🇪

  56. S.... H....

    Beautiful....so wonderful!! I love this so much!!! YAAAAAA MEAV!!! You have written a fantastic song here!!

  57. M.... v....

    Maired where are you? 😢😢😢

    M.... v....

    Did you not get the memo? She left to spend more time with her family.

  58. J.... P....

    It should be duly noted, that this jaunty tune- though written in the traditional vein- is actually a very recent creation by
    Vocal Director Meav and Gavin Murphy - musical director . That actually makes the lyrics kind of amusing if you were paying attention. lol :) xx

  59. I.... 4....

    Love the green dresses!

  60. C.... T....

    I love everything about this! The catchy tune, the energy, the vibrant dresses...definitely one of my all-time favorites!

  68. P.... O....

    Lovely performance, my lovely Celtic Ladies. Love you much just as your music. Tara also made the show more exciting with her violin. Love it much. Greetings and kisses from Poland to Ireland sends Przemo.

  69. S.... M....

    What a jolly song.

  70. J.... ....

    I've gotta say. Compared to the original, they've lowered their production values tremendously and seem to be having trouble finding good talent =(

    J.... ....

    Yes. Its not even live at all..

  71. H.... W....

    Where can I see the whole concert?

  72. D.... S....

    Love it another happy dancing song with a loved one. 💜💜🌹

  73. L.... G....

    I absolutely love Celtic Women. My grandparents came from Ireland thru Ellis Island. They passed away before I was born but my parents and my older sister talked about them often. I am so proud of my Irish heritage. The celtic music is beautiful and their singing @ dancing is the best!

  74. R.... H....

    FANTASTIC!!!!!!!

  75. M.... H....

    I love Celtic woman because their voices are amazing no matter who's in the group. I did miss the original ones cuz they were just amazing but these young women are just as amazing they're different yes but their music and their quality of it is just touching and there's something about what they saying touches your soul no matter what song it is. Search a Celtic Woman thank you for what you do in the joy you bring to my heart and many others over the years May y'all be around for a long time and blessed be

  91. G.... G....

    Love these ladies

  92. S.... S....

    Hopefully it is a sound error on the video that is making the nice girl with black hair sound like she has a Alvin chipmunk's singing voice.

    S.... S....

    After reading this, I just had to watch the video again. Your comment made me laugh. I agree, she is singing so high. I can't understand much of what they sing. The accent and the fast singing. I do enjoy them though.

    S.... S....

    That's just Mairead's regular voice. If you have trouble understanding her, there's closed captioning on the video by pressing the icon to the left of the gear icon in the video. 😊

  93. J.... S....

    One of my favourites already...I'm totally in love with this Song 🥰
