When marimba rhythms start to play, dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore, hold me close, sway me more.
Like a flower bending in the breeze, bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me stay with me, sway with me
Bridge
Other dancers may be on the floor, dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique when we sway I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how sway me smooth, sway me now
When marimba rhythms start to play, dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore, hold me close, sway me more.
Like a flower bending in the breeze, bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me stay with me, sway with me
You know how, sway me smooth, sway me now
