This can't be love
because I feel so well
no sobs, no sorrows, no sighs
"Where did you learn how to dance?" Ginny asked Harry.
"From school," he told her.
Her look was doubtful. "Hogwarts?"
"No--the Muggle school I went to before. We did it in gym class. I liked it--they were the only gym classes where Dudley and his gang couldn't get to me." Harry grimaced, thinking of broken glasses and sore ribs.
This can't be love
I get no dizzy spell
my head is not in the skies
He'd asked Ginny to dance because he really did like dancing, apart from the appeal of no Dudley, and Ron was already dancing with Hermione. No way he would break up that couple. Besides, Ginny was less experienced than he at dancing, so there was less chance of embarassment.
However, his pleasure in dancing itself was outweighed by the pleasure of dancing with Ginny.
Strange.
my heart does not stand still
just hear it beat
this is too sweet
to be love
She seemed to have gotten over her crush on him lately. He had to admit himself relieved about that. Her devotion had always left him uncomfortable and rather twitchy. Perhaps because he'd always had the creeping feeling that she wasn't mad for him, but for Harry Potter, the Boy Who Lived, the boy with the lightning scar and the victorious battle that he didn't even remember.
This can't be love
because I feel so well
but still I love to look in your eyes!
But it was just . . . nice, dancing with her like this. Gym class dancing had always been rather awkward, with the teacher bellowing out orders-- "Dursley, don't step on the girl's foot again! Potter, you're wandering! Polkiss--you move that hand this second, or--!"
This, on the other hand, was a graceful, companionable dance, without the need to do anything but move to the music and lead his partner with the lightest of touches. She seemed almost to read his mind.

It was just the dancing, and the camaraderie. It wasn't anything beyond that.
Of course it wasn't.
This can't be love
because I feel so well
but still I love to look in your eyes,
Still I love to look in your eyes!
