Isn't the music swellegant?

Swellegant. 

[HELEN, spoken]
You know, ah’m not upset any more. And ah feel like dancin'. 

[GENE, spoken]
Well I would be honored, Miss Forrester. 

[HELEN]
This is nice, isn't it?
Ah mean, the music
This is nice, isn't it?
Ah mean, the band

Don't you think
We make natural partners?
Ah mean, like food and drink
Or supply and demand?
We're so right, aren't we?
Ah mean, for dancing
Hold me tight, cling to me—
Ah mean, my hand!

Ah feel fine!
Ah'm aglow with a Sunday shine!
Could I be falling in—?
Ah mean to say—
Well, anyway
Isn’t it grand?
