Lighter Lyrics

Dancing Ledges, Dorset

" DANCING Ledges, Dancing Ledges, Have you been to Dancing Ledges ? O'er the fields and through the hedges, Past the bog bell-heather edges, By the brook with flowering sedges, That's the way to Dancing Ledges I Have you been to Dancing Ledges ?I " To the Ledges I've not been, And the dancing ne'er have seen, Nor traced the track that lies between Moor and mere of silver sheen, Nor come to where the Ledges lean High o'er the sea of glinting green Nor have I seen the Fairy Queen Who dances on the Ledges' edges, Madly twirls on Dancing Ledges.

Have you been to Dancing Ledges ? ' "
