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 the song of romance and of love
You kiss, while you're dancing,
It's Continental, it's continental.
You sing while you're dancing
Your voice is gentle, and sentimental
You'll know before the 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
And you will do "The Continental" all the time
Beautiful music! Dangerous rhythm!
