Jalousie, 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

Well, I fear that the music will end
And shatter the spell it may lend
To make me believe
when your eyes just deceive
It's only a 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
It's only a tango you love
It's only a tango that you love
