My mother and father loved to dance
Music was in their soul
It kept them young
though the years rolled on
Their song never grew old

I felt the world fall silent
When I heard they'd passed away
But then from out of nowhere
A song began to play...

Are you dancing in heaven tonight ?
Holding each other so tight
Just like you did all those magic nights before
Moving to the rhythm of love
And though I 'm gonna miss you so much
I know you 'll be alright
Cause you're dancing in heaven tonight

Now there's a place inside my heart
Where the music never ends
And anytime the teardrops start
I go back there again

I see you dance together
The way it used to be
And then I know that love's a song
That lasts through all eternity

Are you dancing in heaven tonight ?
Holding each other so tight
Just like you did all those magic nights before
Moving to the rhythm of love
And though I 'm gonna miss you so much
I know you 'll be alright
Cause you're dancing in heaven tonight


I know you're dancing in heaven tonight
Holding each other so tight
Stepping in time across a starlit floor
Moving to the rhythm of love
And though I'm gonna miss you so much
I know you 'll be alright
Cause you're dancing in heaven tonight

This is nothing short of beautiful. I could listen to this a hundred times and still love it just the same as the first time I heard it. Thank you!

My husband and I danced all the time. we'd put a record on and dance, hear music on tv and we'd dance. He died in 1988 and I look forward to dancing in heaven with my soul mate.

This song is so poignant and bittersweet and although losing both my parents has been very difficult, the song makes me smile thinking about them up in heaven dancing together to their hearts delight. Thank you for writing such a beautiful song.

This song is absolutely perfect for my parents who passed away within days of each other. Mom 08-06-11 Dad 08-09-11. The song is so beautiful. Any idea of why it was removed when I shared it to facebook to help ease the pain of my siblings and family?
