Lyrics

Tonight, come and dream in my arms.
Tonight, let me whisper my love to you.
In a night like we find in our dreams,
Love is a stream reflecting Tango eyes.
In the light, life is not what it seems,
Love is a dream out under Mango Skies.

Take my hand, come and sway in the harmony.
Take my hand, come and dance in the heart of me.
In a night where we live all out dreams,
Love is a waterfall that drowns your Tano eyes.
In the light, life is not what it seems to be,
So come and cling to me out under Mango Skies.

Tonight, life is not what it seems,
Love is a dream out under Mango Skies.
