Classic Poem

(Y OU Kiss W HILE Y OU'RE D ANCING )

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!
