Lyrics
In your eyes, tho’ you’re masquerading
Shines the love-light, don’t be evading
Music soft, it’s made for romancing
How my heart sings while we are dancing
In my arms I hold you so tightly
O’er the floor we’re gliding so lightly
While we tango, tell me you love me true
Chorus
Please don’t be so tantalizing
It’s time our hearts were harmonizing
This night of beauteous love belongs to us
Beauteous night of love
Please don’t be so tantalizing
Please make my life forever divine
Heaven is here, dear
So, please unmask and let me
Press your burning lips to mine
Chorus
Please don’t ever leave me, darling
Let me feel your arms around me
Fascinating, charming tango
How it’s rhythm breathes of passion
Let’s dance until the break of morn
And as we dance our love is born
Enfold me tightly ’til the dawn
Unmask, my love
