Beautiful music
Dangerous rhythm
Its something daring, the continental
A way of dancing thats really ultra-new
Its very subtle, the continental
Because it does what you want it to do
It has a passion, the continental
An invitation to moonlight and romance
Its quite the fashion, the continental
Because you tell of your love while you dance
You kiss while youre dancing
Its continental, ooh, its continental
You sing while youre dancing
Your voice is gentle and so sentimental
Youll know before the dance is through
That youre in love with her and shes in love with you
Youll find while youre dancin
That theres a rhythm in your heart and soul
A certain rhythm that you cant control
And you will do the continental all the time
<brief instrumental>
Youll find while youre dancin
That theres a rhythm in your heart and soul
A certain rhythm that you cant control
And you will do the continental all the time
Beautiful music
Dangerous rhythm
The continental!
