Gypsys' Dance

We lie together
in the dawn
watching the sun rise
light up the world
in pink and red hues

This great big world
goes spinning round

We sleep and dream
the day away

Two gypsys dance a whirlwind
stirring up the milky way

We lie together watching stars
twinkling in the twilight

We'd been everywhere
sailing the Mediterranean

We've seen the ruins
thinking ancient thoughts

Empires rose and fell
in history books
Lovers in the sultry air
breathe the warm sea breeze
whispering of pharohs and queens

An aqua blue sea
A white beach

Two gypsys dance a whirlwind
stirring up the cosmos

We watch the stars fall
their tails fiery
We laugh and kiss
holding one another tight
in torrid excitation

This great big world
goes spinning round

We capture history
as two lovers conjoining

Our gypsy hearts are beating
dancing in constant motion
as we listen to the spheres
The stars are disappearing
The silver light is fading
