I couldn't

The orchestra started up.
I confess I was a little nervous,
I didn't recognize the song.

The people began to show up
In their party clothes.
The line was bowing.

You said what a pretty thing,
the steps to dance, leading me through.
suddenly I thought I knew the song.

I see how they follow, jump
(they jump)
turn (they turn)
I look back,
I won't be there.
