The Musical Movie El (Argentine) Tango de Roxanne Moulin Rouge

 

 

Lyrics

The Narcoleptic Argentinean (spoken):
We have a dance!
In the brothels of Buenos Aires
Tells the story
Of the prostitute
And the man
Who fell in love...
with her.

First there is desire
Then... passion!
Then... suspicion!
Jealosy! Anger! Betrayel!
Where love is for the highest bidder,
There can be no trust.
Without trust,
There is no love!
Jealosy.
Yes, jealosy...
Will drive you...
Will drive you...
Will drive you...
Mad!

Roxanne, you don't have to put on that red light
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it is right.

Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight.
Roxanne, you don't have to sell your body to the night.

Christian:
His eyes upon your face
His hand upon your hand
His lips caress your skin

Its more than I can stand

Argentinean:
Roxanne

Christian:
Why does my heart cry?

Argentinean:
Roxanne

Christian:
Feelings I can't fight

you're free to leave me
But just don't deceive me
And please
Believe me when I say
I love you

(spoken in the background)
Yo que te quiero tanto, que voy a hacer?
Me dejaste...me dejaste como una paloma
El alma se me fue; se me fue el corazon
Ya no tengo ganas de vivir porque no te puedo convencer
Que no te vendas, Roxanne

Argentinean:
Roxanne you don't have to put on that red light

Christian:
Why does my heart cry?
Feelings I can't fight

Argentinean:
You don't have to wear that dress tonight

Roxanne you don't have to put on that red light

Backing:
Why does my heart cry?

Argentinean:
Roxanne you don't have to wear that dress tonight

Backing:
Feelings I can't fight

Christian, Argentinean & Backing:
ROXANNE!
