Last tango in paris

Letra de Dory Previn
Música de Gato Barbieri

We don’t exist-
we are nothing but shadow and mist.
In the mirror we look- as we pass-
no reflection’s revealed in the glass.
Don’t you know that the blood in your vein
is as lifeless as yesterday’s rain?
It’s a game where we come to conceal
the confusión we feel.
But as long as we’re nameless
our bodies are blameless.

You cried when we kissed-
it was nothing but shadow and mist.
Two illusions who touch in a trance-
making love not by choice, but by chance
to a theme that we tore from the past,
to a tango we swore was the last.

We are shadows who dance…
