Tango
|
|
( Michael Grimes )
|
|
Darkness falls and the wind dies down
|
The city puts on it s twinkling crown
|
The roses in the garden
|
Whisper over to you
|
|
Step into the evening light
|
Despite your intuition
|
A touch of madness, your thoughts disturbed
|
Seeing clearly, you're out of sight
|
|
Silently, you melt away
|
|
Find you're way down towards the brink
|
Something slipped into your drink
|
Distorts the people, twists the shapes
|
The rising moon begins to sink
|
|
The sound of footsteps, the sound of drums
|
Drives you past the restless slums
|
Alley figures scurry through
|
Watching eyes look over you
|
|
But silently, you melt away
|
|
Carnival rides spinning round
|
Draws you in towards the sound
|
Dancing devils, confusing forms
|
Twist your feelings towards the ground
|
|
Silently, you melt away
|
