Tonight At The Opera

composer/author: Pfleger/Opus

Lyrics: Pfleger E. Music:Opus, published by Opus Music Edition

I can't say I love you
When my love isn't true
Can't say everything is bright
And the Danube is blue
I can't sleep in your arms
Don't need all your charms
Sometimes when the evening comes
I wanna see you again

Tonight at the opera
I'm dancing in the streets
Join the dancers and romancers
allnight long
Tonight at the opera
I'm waltzing to the beat
Dancing a night at the opera to
your heartbeat

I can't say that I try
To live under your sky
Can't say I'll come back to you
Not even then when I die
I can't say that I swear
Stop breathing your air
One night every now and then
I'll come back again

Tonight at the opera...

When the night is gone with
the morning sun
I'm blinded by that shine
I know you can't sacrifice your pride
Like a Valentine
And there is one thing on my mind
Our love comes to an end
You will find no need to understand

Tonight at the opera - No no, no
no, no no no no
Tonight at the opera - No no,
Tastes so bittersweet - No no
Dancing a night at the opera to
your heartbeat

Tonight at the opera...
