I write these words straight from my heart.
When I first danced with you my princess I knew from the start
To win your love I would freely give mine.
Such purity of spirit I never thought to find.
If you were my woman and I were your man
...wed fill our days with all the happiness we can.
And now that I have found a reason to be
...just dancing with you my princess makes me soar so free!
So high I fly above the clouds and the trees
Come ...tango ...share the joy ...I beg you ..."Please".
I cherish the secrets youve dared to share.
In my whole life theres none that compare.
I yearn to dance the tango with you wherever I go.
I am nothing without you ...this much I now know.
Your beauty is the quiet night sky ...and the early morning light
...the flame in my heart ...and in the sun so bright.
Forgive me ...for the gods have commanded that I sing this your song
...and to protect and to serve you ...that no man do you wrong.
Be not afraid my love of these words that I speak.
Although my devotion is strong my heart is still meek.
To dance and fill your life with Love ...is all that I seek.
To dance and fill your life with Love is all that I seek.
