Lyrics
When marimba rhythms start to play
Describing the beginning of a rhythmic musical pattern, possibly setting the mood for dancing.
Dance with me, make me sway
Invitation to dance, expressing a desire for a partner to sway in rhythm.
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Comparing the dance to the gentle embrace of an undemanding ocean against the shore.
Hold me close, sway me more
Request to hold the speaker closely and sway more, intensifying the dance connection.
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Metaphorically describing the dancer's flexibility and willingness to move harmoniously.
Bend with me, sway with ease
Encouragement to the partner to bend and sway smoothly together.
When we dance, you have a way with me
Highlighting the partner's special influence and connection in the dance.
Stay with me, sway with me
Request to stay and continue swaying together, emphasizing the intimacy of the dance.
Other dancers may be on the floor
Acknowledging the presence of other dancers but expressing exclusive focus on the current partner.
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Assurance that the speaker's attention is solely on their partner.
Only you have that magic technique
Complimenting the partner's magical dance technique that captivates the speaker.
When we sway, I go weak
Expressing vulnerability and weakness when swaying with the partner.
I can hear the sounds of violins
Noticing the anticipation of the dance through the sounds of violins.
Long before it begins
Feeling the thrill even before the dance officially begins.
Make me thrill as only you know how
Asking the partner to make the speaker thrilled in a unique and special way.
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Requesting a smooth and immediate sway from the partner.
Other dancers may be on the floor

Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Confirmation of undivided attention and appreciation for the partner's uniqueness.
Only you have that magic technique
Reaffirming the partner's magical dance technique as the key attraction.
When we sway, I go weak
Repeating the theme of vulnerability and weakness when swaying together.
I can hear the sounds of violins
Recalling the anticipation of the dance through the sounds of violins.
Long before it begins

Make me thrill as only you know how
Requesting the partner to make the speaker thrilled in their unique way.
