While I am staring at the ceiling
wondering if she's wondering why
While I'm wishing every moment
maybe she'll pass me by

I dream of mambo every night
each step of passion pure delight
But when will she dance into my arms
I know that we could move as one
eyes locked until the dance's done
so tell me you dance this mambo tonight


Lying wide awake yet dreaming
dreaming how I've lived to dance with you
Praying, waiting for your answer
to a question so overdue

I dream of mambo every night
each step of passion pure delight
But when will she dance into my arms
I know that we could move as one
eyes locked until the dance's done
so tell me you dance this mambo in the night


I dream of mambo every night
each step of passion pure delight
But when will she dance into my arms
I know that we could move as one
eyes locked until the dance's done
so tell me you dance this mambo tonight
