Tango at sunset

On the crest of the waves under the flame of the sunset
Spin me around and don't take your eyes off.
Forgotten what we once loved
And doesn't care what's ahead.

How heavy a train soaked in water!
How light I am in your big hands.
Today I will be myself
Without a fake smile on my lips.

You are the Night, I am the Day. But don't mean anything
Differences at the witch's sunset.
Let our feelings fool us today
On a wild, pristine beach

Spin me around! No traces remain -
Everything will be washed away by the sea in the hour before dawn.
You are the Day, I am the Night. And the tango will end
In the last bar, confusing us.

Then do not open your arms!
Step ... turn ... and look over the shoulder.
Already without masks and formal dresses
We dance tango, whispering nonsense.
