Dance until the music fades

I try to look for you
But all I can see is the moon
Well honey why don't you see
I'm coming back to you soon
Come dance with me
And we'll dance until the music fades

I try to walk to you
But then I reach the sea
The land falls away
And I'm left between
The devil and the deep blue
Come dance with me
And we'll dance until the music fades

The Sheiks in their pyjamas
And all their purple shades
I've got sand in my Bahamas
And Royal roll on their parades
Come dance with me
And we'll dance until the music fades

Well the sun is in its sky
And the farm is on its stead
And I'm wondering why
You took offense at what I said
Come dance with me baby
And we'll dance until the music fades

The Roman roads
They slip away
Like a night train rolling
Down the straight railway
I've been riding that train baby
All the day from dusk til dawn
So come dance with me baby
We'll dance until the music fades
