The Continental Lyrics - Maureen Mcgovern

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 

His 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 a song of romance and of love 

You kiss while you're dancing 

It's continental, oh oh oh, it's continental 

You sing while you're dancing 

Your voice is gentle, oh oh oh, and sentimental 

You'll know before the dance is through 

That you're in love with him and he'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 

Beautiful music 

Dangerous rhythm 

The Continental
