Tango

I want a woman who is fatal as poison
Who'll break my heart, leave me full of pain
I wanna walk home like a Hemingway hero
My cigarette glowing in the rain

I should have the chance
To make you do that dance
Before the music's gone
And the band plays on and on

People tell me that you're running in the nighttime
With dancing men in tangled webs behind
But I don't want it to be spider and fly time
One pirouette, I could change my mind

If we do that dance
Fall into a trance
Will my heart be torn
As the band plays on and on?

Your love is like a tango, tango
With a dancer whose face I can't see
Your love is like a tango, tango
Shadow girl, you're a mystery

Your love is like a tango, tango
With a dancer whose face I can't see
Your love is like a tango, tango
Shadow girl, you're a mystery

I wish that every guy could have the chance
To take you in his arms and make you do that dance
And when it's over and the music's gone
We dance forever and the band plays on

I should have the chance
To make you do that dance
Before the music's gone
And the band plays on and on

Your love is like a tango, tango
With a dancer whose face I can't see
Your love is like a tango, tango
Shadow girl, you're a mystery

Your love is like a tango, tango
With a dancer whose face I can't see
Your love is like a tango, tango
Shadow girl, you're a mystery

Your love, tango, tango
Your love, tango, tango
Your love, tango, tango
Your love, tango, tango
