Seventh Samba Lyrics - Singles - Bridget Metcalfe

Our eyes met across a room 

At a party in late June 

Where the elegant and chic 

embraced the clique 

To be together was unwise 

Hand in hand we wouldn't dare 

to risk the eyes of those who recognise 

Living in another place 

Moving at a different pace 

Remembering the vision and how I see you 

Remembering the times we shared 

Even though you never dared 

to dance the Seventh Samba with me 

You were in the public eye 

and the camera never lies 

Our liaison hit the fan, 

you seemed to crumble 

So I agreed against my will 

to deny and disappear 

In a different time you'd love me still 

When the flowers came today 

and I found your note to say 

that you love me and need me in your life 

These circumstances made 

you decide to tilt the shade 

and dance the Seventh Samba with me
