El Tango de Roxanne lyrics

(Spoken)

We have a dance!

In the brothels of Buenos Aries

Tells the story

Of a prostitute.

And a man... who falls in love...

With her.

First there is desire

Then... passion!

Then... suspicion!

Jealousy! Anger! Betrayal!

Where love is for the highest bidder,

There can be no trust!

Without trust,

There is no love!

Jealousy.

Yes, jealousy...

Will drive you... mad!

Roxanne

You don't have to put on that red light

Walk the streets for money

You don't care if it's wrong or if it is right

Roxanne

You don't have to wear that dress tonight

Roxanne

You don't have to sell your body to the night

His eyes upon your face

His hand upon your hand

His lips caress your skin

It's more than I can stand

(Roxanne)

Why does my heart cry?

(Roxanne)

Feelings I can't fight

You're free to leave me, but just don't decieve me

And please believe me when I say I love you

Yo que te quiero tanto, qué voy ha hacer

Me dejaste, me dejaste

En un tango

En el alma se me fue

Se me fue el corazon

Ya no tengo ganas de vivir

Porque no te puedo convencer

Que no te vendas Roxanne

(Roxanne)

Why does my heart cry?

(Roxanne)

Feelings I can't fight

(Roxanne)

You don't have to put on that red light

Roxanne

(Roxanne)

(Roxanne)
