The Continental

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
His 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
It's continental, oh oh oh, it's continental
You sing while you're dancing
Your voice is gentle, oh oh oh, and sentimental.

You'll know before the dance is through
That you're in love with him and he'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
And you will do the Continental all the time.

Beautiful music
Dangerous rhythm
Beautiful music
Dangerous rhythm
The Continental.
