A Whiter Shade Of Pale
Words & Music by Keith Reid and Gary Brooker
(c) 1967 Westminster Music Ltd 19-20 Poland Street London W1V 3DD
We skipped the light fandango
And turned cartwheels cross the floor
I was feeling kind of sea-sick
But the crowd yelled out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray.
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale.
She said there is no reason
And the truth is plain to see
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might just as well been closed.
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale.
