Greatest Hits" -Columbia CS 8636 -peak Billboard position # 3 in
1951 -Words by Vera Bloom and Jacob Gade
Jealousy, night and day you
torture me I sometimes wonder If this spell that I'm under Can only be
a melody For I know no one but me has won your heart, but When the music
starts, my peace departs
From the moment they play that lovely
strain And we surrender to all its charm again This jealousy that
tortures me is ecstasy, mystery, pain
We dance to a tango of
love Your heart beats with mine as we sway Your eyes give the answer I'm
dreaming of That soft word your cruel lips will never say
I fear that
the music will end And shatter the spell it may lend To make me believe
when your eyes just deceive But it's only the tango you love
I fear
that the music will end And shatter the spell it may lend To make me
believe when your eyes just deceive And it's only the tango you
love
It's only the tango that you love!!
