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
