Dancing separately;
Romantically swaying from here and there
Shy stares, sexy smiles
Until 1:43
When we touch our hands

Tango in red dress;
When he loses his mind,
And follows her steps;
Seems a misstep.
No, it is her essence that domains

He tells her name
As she is drawn to him;
Calmly she composes herself,
It’s a 1, 2, 3 steps; music in my head

I can’t coordinate,
I think I will fall again
But he reasons well
I can’t complain.
