So distant, exotic and stronger than time 

A steel band, so magic’s there but one of a kind

And her face is a mirror that tells every tale

Boats and the tide that the fisherman sails

Saying: Take me tonight where the pineapple grows

And we’ll both share a secret to tell when we’re old



Oh, dancing in madness

A hunger I feel in my soul

Oh, dancing in madness

The wonder of love that I stole



The passport I carry will be out of date

But the fever inside me tells me I will be late

The word she’s whispering are words that I lack

But her fingers translate them deep in my back

Saying: One of a pair is worthless alone

When two bodies meet - love has come home



Oh, dancing in madness

A hunger I feel in my soul

Oh, dancing in madness

The wonder of love that I stole
