I'm wearin' my best old dress and my Momma's pearls
And "Tahitian Nights" perfume
Got my high heels on and my glasses off
As I trip into the room
There's this guy I'm dyin' to see
And before the night is through
I'm gonna make him mine, all mine
With some help from you

I set my "Seven Up" by a potted palm
And I hope I look real cool
As I drape my coat 'cross the other chair
Of a table meant for two
Now, he's standing in the doorway
Checkin' out the view
Well I'm gonna try and catch his eye
With some help from you

Girandola
Be my friend tonight
You've got the power
To make my future bright
Dance Hall Moon, let me shine in your light
Be my friend tonight

Well, he walks right up and he takes my hand
And ol' Girandola beams
And I wrap both arms around his neck
And go dancining through my dreams
With the bright lights spinning 'round us
Makin' magic fill the room
Looks like we're both on our way
With some help from you

Girandola
Be my friend tonight
You've got the power
To make my future bright
Dance Hall Moon, let me shine in your light
Be my friend tonight

"What is a girandola? It's that big, mirror-covered ball that spins above a dance floor."

"What's this song about? The hope, desire, cunning, and, most of all, clumsiness, that one may experience in trying to attract a mate."

"Producers Pat Hubbard and George Merrill managed to give the song a nice disco sound without overwhelming the story."
