Continental

Sé que parece particular Que contigo ni hace falta hablar Las palabras pueden sobrar Lo que decimos sin decir nada Y es que yo para ti Voy de viaje a Japón Lleno de plantas mi depa, pa' que se vea mejor Yo por ti hasta creo que creo en Dios Te hice una copia de llaves Para que supieras que puedes regresar Cuando las calles se callen Y se apaguen las luces de esta ciudad Te hice un desayuno tan continental Para que puedas apagar la alarma Te hice una copia de llaves Para que supieras que puedes regresar Ya no entiendo ¿Cómo te lo digo? Cuanto quiero Hice una copia de llaves para que supieras que puedes regresar Tus flores en la mesa Ayer salí a buscar qué almohada comprarte Yo sólo quiero que me digas Que te quedas sin yo preguntarte Y es que yo para ti Voy de viaje a Japón Lleno de plantas mi depa, pa' que se vea mejor Yo por ti hasta creo que creo en Dios Te hice una copia de llaves Para que supieras que puedes regresar Cuando las calles se callen Y se apaguen las luces de esta ciudad Te hice un desayuno tan continental Para que puedas apagar la alarma Te hice una copia de llaves Para que supieras que puedes regresar

(From "The Gay Divorcee") GINGER: Beautiful music... Dangerous rhythm... It's something daring, The Continental, A way of dancing that's really ultra new. It's very subtle, The Continental, Because it does what you want it to do. It has a passion, The Continental, An invitation to moonlight and romance. It's quite the fashion, The Continental, Because you tell of your love while you dance. Your lips whisper so tenderly. Her eyes answer your song. Two bodies swaying, The Continental, And you are saying just what you're dreaming of. So keep on dancing, The Continental, For it's a song of romance and of love. You kiss while you're dancing. (FRED: (spoken) That's not a bad idea.) The Continental, hmmmmm. It's continental. You sing while you're dancing. Your voice is gentle and sentimental. You stroll together arm in arm. You nonchalantly glide along with grace and charm. You will find while you're dancing That there's a rhythm in your heart and soul, A certain rhythm that you can't control, And you will do The Continental all the time. ERIC RHODES: Beautiful music... Dangerous rhythm... It's something daring, The Continental, A way of dancing that's really ultra-new. It's very subtle, The Continental, Because it does what you want it to do. It has a passion, The Continental, An invitation to moonlight and romance. It's quite the fashion, The Continental, Because you tell of your love while you dance. Your lips whisper so tenderly. Her eyes answer your song! Two bodies swaying, The Continental, And you are saying just what you're thinking of. So keep on dancing, The Continental, For it's a song of romance and of love. You kiss while you're dancing. The Continental, Continental. You sing while you're dancing. Your voice is gentle, so sentimental. You know before this dance is through That you're in love with she and she's in love with you. You'll find while you're dancing Here's a rhythm in your heart and soul, A certain rhythm that you can't control, And you will do The Continental all the time. LILLIAN MILES: Dukes and lords of noble station Love the new sophistication of The Continental. In a Belgian hall room, In a Monte Carlo ballroom, you will see The Continental. In the Paris bistros crowded with Apache, You will see The Continental in the best French fashion. Spain and Italy, Transylvania, Norway, Sweden and Rumania do The Continental. On the dike of Zuider Zee, The wooden shoes have found the key to Continental. It's like a fever. It's like a plague. It's swept all Europe From Moscow to The Hague. You kiss while you're dancing. The Continental, the rhythm is driving you wild. The Continental, a meter that isn't so mild. You sing while you're dancing. His voice is gentle. It thrills you, the touch of his hand. The Continental, a meter that you understand. You'll know before this dance is through That you're in love with her and she's in love with you. You'll find while you're dancing That there's a rhythm in your heart and soul, A certain rhythm that you can't control, The Continental. Continental. Continental!

Love comes at the speed of light Love comes at the speed of light Love comes in a strange disguise Love comes Open the door and let the light pour over Open the door don't you keep me out Open the door and let the light pour over Hear me shout Open the door and let the light pour over Open the door don't you keep me out Open the door and let the light pour over Love comes at the speed of light Love comes It's a pure as silver It's as pure as gold It's a rushing river Let it run all over me It's as pure as silver It's as pure as gold Let it run all over me Love comes Love comes at the speed of light Love comes at the speed of light
