[English]

Beautiful tango, take me by the hand

Beautiful tango, oh, until you make me dance

How sweet it can be, if you make me dance?

How long will it last, baby, if we dance?

Come to the, come to the world

Come to the, come to the world

And baby, let me show you things

'Cause time is running and we can lose

Baby, come and dance, we gonna make it through

'Cause we've got time

Yes, we've got time

Beautiful stranger, don't want to know your name

Beautiful stranger, oh, just take me by the hand

'Cause how sweet it can be, if you make me dance?

How long will it last, oh baby, if we dance?

Come to the place where the skin speaks

The secret words in Spanish

Where the night turns out the lights of day

For us to show some courage

So don't go, if you wanna know

Don't go, if you don't know

Don't go, if you wanna know

Don't go, don't go, don't go

Beautiful stranger, take me by the hand

Make me dance all night, I wanna take the chance

'Cause I love the way you move, and the way you

Put your hands on my hips are moving while you take it slow

Makes me feel like I'm on a river flow

'Cause we've got time

And yes, we've got time

Beautiful stranger, I wanna lose my mind

Beautiful stranger, in the danger of your arms, oh-oh

Beautiful stranger, I want to lose myself

Beautiful stranger, in the danger of your arms

Of your arms

Oh-oh, oh-oh, hm

Tripping on, tripping on

Tripping on you, baby

Now you got me

Tripping on, tripping on

Tripping on you now

Tripping on you, baby

Got me tripping on you now, now, now, now

Hm-mm, hm-mm, hm-mm
