The Matador lyrics

Everybody holds their breath

As he passes by the horns of death

Then the crowd is on its feet to roar

For the matador

With the scarlet cape against his hips

"El Toro" whispers from his lips

And inside my heart is beating for

The matador

Tonight we'll meet beneath the silver stars

Dance to mandolins and soft guitars

I'll dream I give my love once more

To the matador

To the matador

As I watch his body turn and twist

He doesn't know that I exist

Though I've shared so many dreams before

With the matador

Tonight we'll meet beneath the silver stars

Dance to mandolins and soft guitars

I'll dream I give my love once more

To the matador

To the matador

And as he leaves the ring they cheer

Sombreros fly into the air

And I throw the crimson rose I wore

To the matador
