In white Spanish lace,
ebony black hair tumbling
down her back to her tiny waist.
Across the hardwoods,
we danced the Spanish
tango.
Into the night,
we danced check to
check and toe to toe.
The moment was ours,
on that warm summer night.
Toasts of red Spanish wine
to a night so divine.
But it was a love,
we both knew could never be.
Then time took me back across the sea.
The years have quickly passed
and our lives sailed by so fast.
But those moments, cheek to cheek
and toe to toe forever will be
ours, so sublime.
And here in my heart, I often
contemplate that far off place
in time.
I can still see your picturesque silhouette
dancing gracefully under that Spanish moon.
And I will forever remember that magic night,
we met and that fast beat tango tune.
You will always possess a part of my heart,
as long as we are so very far apart.
Absolutely captivating. The melody entrancing . My absolutely favorite dance. 😀
Thank you – Let always the music brings you happiness and joy!
Always. It DOES!
Fine performance all round; well done!
Mihran,
Do your talents have no end? The Tango is very passionate, as if the couple is making love on the dance floor. I love to watch it performed by those who can exude that passion. I cannot dance due to physical limitations and overall lack of talent; therefore, I respect and admire a couple who can use passion tempered with grace to move the souls of all spectators.
Your beautiful music is heavy with that passion charging your words with the warmth this dance/music demands. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing skills and perspective in this life! As I read your words and listened to your music, I imagined my sweet prince holding me in his embrace and staring deeply into my soul as I lost myself in his gaze. This was a special fantasy for me as now, I will never hold him in my embrace. Thank you Mihran for leading my soul to paradise to visit my beloved. Blessings and peace upon you.
Beautiful.
Thank you Chess!
The words and the melody the perfect tango..God Bless you Mihran so that you may continue to spread happiness of music and lyrics to the whole world!
Reblogged this on Smorgasbord – Variety is the spice of life and commented:
The Tango is one of my all time favourite dances.. Being a rock ‘n’ roll old boiler means that my dancing skills have been honed to heavy metal but when you hear Mihran’s music it is easy to imagine yourself floating in the arms of a forceful Gaucho… steady girl…
I apologize for not responding earlier – I want to thank you from my bottom of my heart. This means a lot to me!
Exquisite rapture. We’ve never known anyone who hits the beat precisely each and every time. Your music is a priceless gift to the ballroom community everywhere.
