Dancing Girl

Chica Bailarina

Dancing Girl

La habitación estaba oscura, pero la vi ahíThe room was dark but I could see her there
Su rostro perdido entre su cabello al vientoHer face was lost inside her flowing hair
Era mi chica bailarinaShe was my dancing girl
Era una chica bailarinaShe was a dancing girl

Ella bailaba solaShe danced alone
Era una chica bailarinaShe was a dancing girl

Llevó la música con su dulce movimientoShe took the music with her sweet sashay
La única sonrisa en un café tristeThe only smile inside a sad café
Era todo lo que podía verWas all that I can see
Era un misterioShe was a mystery

Oh, ella bailaba solaOh, she danced alone
Era una chica bailarinaShe was a dancing girl

Se movía tan fácil y sin miedoShe moved so easy and so unafraid
Y cada canción que sonaba era como una serenataAnd every song that they played was like a serenade
Su serenata, su escapadaHer serenade, her escapade

Oh, tomé valor y la vi moverseOh, I drank courage and I watched her sway
Elegí una canción para que sonara en el jukeboxI picked a song to make the jukebox play
Tenía que ser perfectaIt had to be just right
Tenía que durar toda la nocheIt had to last the night

Y ella bailaba solaAnd she danced alone
Era una chica bailarinaShe was a dancing girl
Oh-ohOh-oh

Y si lo supiera, podría llamarla por su nombreAnd if I knew it, I could call her name
Iluminaríamos la noche como una llama plateadaWe'd light the night up like a silver flame
Tenía que hacer que lo vieraI had to make her see
Ella me pertenecíaShe belonged to me

Tomé su mano y luego ella me llevóI took her hand then she took me on
El ritmo de la conga, luego bailamos hasta el amanecerThe conga rhythm, then we danced till dawn
Yo y mi chica bailarinaMe and my dancing girl
Era mi chica bailarinaShe was my dancing girl

Toda la nocheAll through the night
Era mi chica bailarinaShe was my dancing girl
¡Ho!Ho!
