THIN LIZZY LYRICS
"Randolph's Tango" (1973 Single)
1. Randolph's Tango
2. Broken Dreams
1. Randolph's Tango
The senorita took off her bobby socks
She said she's gonna wear a skirt that shocks
She's pulling out all the stops
To get her Randolph back again
Meanwhile Randolph, he's back at the ranch
He's getting ready for tonight's song and dance
He's doesn't know he doesn't stand a chance
His last affair will be his last romance
The senorita will be there waiting
Don't go my Randolph slow tango with me
Underneath the Latin moonlight
The danced and seen a falling star in flight
To the strum of guitars she held him tight
She wants her Randolph back again
Meanwhile it's worthwhile for Randolph to wait
'Till he gets the nerve then he won't hesitate
He doesn't know but he's just bit the bait
He just asked if he could make a date
The senorita will be there waiting
Don't go my Randolph slow tango with me
The senorita's heart is in love
She wearing white tonight, looks as pure as a dove
She's thanking God and all the heavenly stars above
Randolph's romance is back again
Meanwhile Randolph smiles and says he'll give her ten
She doesn't come so he just counts again
And he's been there since he does not know when
He's thinks she's stood him up but in the end
The senorita won't keep him waiting
Don't go my Randolph slow tango with me
ooh la-la...
Senorita dance cheek to cheek
ooh la-la...
We will dance off into the sky
2. Broken Dreams
Have you ever had your dreams broken?
It really messes up your heart
You want to stop right there
And go right back to the start
You got to leave the town you're living in
Oh I'm leaving, I'm leaving on the next train
My dreams have been broken
I don't think I'll ever be the same
It's a bad, bad feeling when all the things
That you've worked for just don't seem to turn out right
Well this happened to me last night
I woke up this morning and said I must be going
You see my dreams have been broken
I don't think I have
The strength to carry on
So I'll catch the next train southbound
I don't want no pity
Not from you or anyone
It's just my dreams been broken
And I got to tell someone before I go crazy
I'll be leaving
I'll be leaving
On that next train going southbound
Yes, I'll be leaving on that next train
You see my dreams been broken
And I just can't
Take the pain
I've got to move on
You see my dreams been broken
And I don't have
The strength
To carry on
