Marisa





It's quite a party on the street tonight

Alive with music

Alive with noise and light



Marisa

You've been in your room all day

Marisa

Hear the fine mariachi play

How happy we could be

If you'd come down and dance with me



There's a corner by the stairway wall

We could dance there and not move at all



Marisa

Just put on your pink print dress

Marisa

How tightly our legs will press

You sit there like a stone

But I don't want to dance alone



He really did a job on you

You've dropped clear out of sight

You've starved yourself in spite

Heartbreak is a game for two

Come play that game with me tonight



The moon burns with a hot white flame

But your smile could put that moon to shame



Marisa

The night wears a bright new skin

Marisa

My arms wait to take you in



How lonely they will be

If you don't come and dance with me



How lonely it will be

If you don't come and dance with me
