   Now the party's over,   I'm so tired
A
   Then I see you coming    out of nowhere
A
   Much communication     in a motion
A
   Without conversation      or a notion

                          Avalon

A
   When the samba takes you    out of nowhere
A
   And the background's fading    out of focus
A
   Yes the picture's changing    every moment
A
   And your destination     you don't know it

Dancing, dancing

Dancing, dancing

A
   When you bossa nova     there's no holding
A
   Would you have me dancing    out of nowhere
