Castanet Dance (R. McGuinn / C. McGuinn)


You were busy then, I was crazy then
You were being there, I was running away
You had me figured out, I was living in doubt
You had money to spare, makes me dizzy today

And the glimpse of our past fades away so fast
Like a Castanet Dance in the night
And the glimpse of our past fades away so fast
Like a Castanet Dance in the night

Champagne corks popping late at night
Laughing stars falling out of sight
Bright beauties are twirling now
Bright beauties are twirling to Castanet Dance

You were taking your world, I was shooting the curl
You were bathed in success, I was floating in space
You smiled at my story, I applauded your glory
You forgave my excess, and we danced and embraced

And the glimpse of our past fades away so fast
Like a Castanet Dance in the night
And the glimpse of our past fades away so fast
Like a Castanet Dance in the night

Champagne corks popping late at night
Laughing stars falling out of sight
Bright beauties are twirling now
Bright beauties are twirling to Castanet Dance

And the glimpse of our past fades away so fast
Like a Castanet Dance in the night
And the glimpse of our past fades away so fast
Like a Castanet Dance in the night

Champagne corks popping late at night
Laughing stars falling out of sight
Bright beauties are twirling now
Bright beauties are twirling to Castanet Dance (X3)
