TANGO NOIR

(verse 1)

in my diary a full page a day

I dedicate to my lovely

an obsession known to the bed where I lay

a hideaway

you do not even know

I look at the sky thinking of you

the one bet holding me back

is I know what I lack

the determination

to make a confession

if there's such a thing as destiny

why should I make an admission?

suitors come in suits and bring gifts

I turn them away bravely

with your obvious lonesome self

ahh, stay lonely

(chorus)

maybe I will drink of that sweet poison

but only then, do you decide to kiss my red lips

and partake in this tragic fate, a mystery, right?

do you know, what I could consume you in?

a destiny, worse than a tango danced sadly

and yet you go, be the knight that saves my night, so gracefully

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

just a dreaming woman

that wants romance at night

billowing white curtains and a silhouette

of the man she loves

if anyone can hear this prayer from me

I want time to stop

that moment when he touched my hair tenderly

ahh, mystery

(chorus)

maybe you will, be the one to marry first

leaving me, behind in the dust

rose-colored, glasses on my face, I give you space

a parody, of the card game where we gambled

and placed bets on who would confess

it took you, walking away from my body, to end me

(end chorus)

(chorus)

maybe I will drink of that sweet poison

but only then, do you decide to kiss my red lips

and partake in this tragic fate, a mystery, right?

do you know, what I could consume you in?

a destiny, worse than a tango danced sadly

and yet you go, be the knight that saves my night, so gracefully

(end chorus)
