Paroles de Casbah

This is the oldest dance Deepest beat and the lovers' trance And the closing of the space between us And the rhythm of the place i dream us May you people always move in the old, old way This is the oldest dance Deepest beat and the lovers' trance And you would have to be so cruel To stop me now i'm a rhythm fool And the colour of the veins you open Stains the nation with the games you've broken And you're people should be free to wander Free to choose every step And never loose May your people always move in the old, old way Everybody was so happy The day we danced on a beautiful sea And you would have to be so cruel To stop me now i'm a rhythm fool And it's got to be heaven's hand Shining light on the chosen land This is the oldest dance Deepest beat and the lovers' trance Everybody was so happy The day we danced on a beautiful sea And you would have to be so cruel To stop me now i'm a rhythm fool This is the oldest dance Deepest beat and the lovers' trance
