Back to Hello, Dolly!Dolly, Cornelius, Barnaby, Irene, Minnie DOLLY: (Spoken) Put your arm on her waist and stand with her right in your left hand... ... and one, two, three, one, two, three, one, two, three.... Take the someone whose arms you're in. Hold on to her tight and spin and, one, two, three, one, two, three, one, two, three.... Turn around and turn around, try floating thru' the air. Can't you be a little more aesthetic? CORNELIUS: Don't you think my dancing has a polish and a flair? DOLLY: The word I think I'd use is athletic! CORNELIUS: Well, my heart is about to burst. My head is about to pop, and now that I'm dancing who cares if I ever stop! DOLLY: Glide and step and the step and glide, and ev'ryone stand aside. You could learn to polka if you worked a week or so, or the tango filled with passion seething. BARNABY: I might join the chorus of the Castle Garden show. DOLLY: Whatever you do for Gosh sake keep breathing. ALL THREE: For my heart is about to burst. My heart is about to pop, and now that we're dancing who cares if we ever stop! MRS. MOLLOY: When there's someone you hardly know, and wish you were closer to, remember that he can be near to you while you're dancing. Though you've only just said "hello", he's suddenly someone who can make all your daydreams appear to you while your're dancing. Make the music weave a spell. Whirl away your worry. Things look almost twice as well when they're slightly blurry! DOLLY: As around and around you go, your spirits will hit the top, and..... ALL: Now that we're dancing who cares if we ever stop!
