I Lost My Heart At the Ball

I Lost My Heart At the Ball is a deleted song from the 1950 Disney animated film, Cinderella.
==Background==
The song was originally going to be heard during the part where Cinderella tells her bird and mouse friends of her magical evening about Prince Charming, but the song ended up getting removed from the final cut. As with many songs composed by Larry Morey and Charles Wolcott, there was wordiness present that may be the reason Walt Disney turned to popular composers for the film's songs. As with the songs written by Morey/Wolcott, it was written in 1946.Page 3 of The Lost Chords: Cinderella booklet, Walt Disney Records, 2012.
==Lyrics==
I was standing there
It was hardly fair
For my heart had no warning at all
He just gave me a smile
Then we danced for a while
And I lost my heart at the ball
As we danced, we swayed
And I felt afraid
For my heart said, "Get ready to fall"
So I tried to be wise
But I looked in his eyes
And I lost my heart at the ball
I said to my heart as we danced around
"Behave, stop acting this way"
And when I started to leave
I found my heart determined to stay
Now my heart has flown
And I'm left alone
With a memory that's sweet to recall
So I'll never regret
The evening we met
When I lost my heart at the ball
