Tangerine
Captivating Tales of Tangerine Dreams: Vaughn Monroe's Enchanting Journey
Lyrics
There's legend in Creole
Introduction to a Creole legend
About a girl who's quite a dream
Describing a girl with exceptional qualities, possibly in a mythical or dreamlike context
And so I went to see
Expressing the speaker's intent to investigate the mentioned girl
'Til I landed in Rio
Arrival in Rio, suggesting a tropical and exotic setting
I thought the tale was a bit extreme
Initial skepticism about the credibility of the tale
But I'm forced to agree
Admission of agreement with the story
Tangerine, she is all they claim
Description of Tangerine with high praise
With her eyes at night
Highlighting the captivating nature of her eyes at night
And lips as bright as flames
Emphasizing the brightness of her lips like flames
Tangerine, when she dances by
Observation of Tangerine's impact when she dances
Señoritas stare and caballeros spar
Noting the reactions of Señoritas (young ladies) and caballeros (gentlemen)
And I've seen close to Tangerine
Claiming personal experience in proximity to Tangerine
Praised in every part across the Argentine
Mentioning Tangerine's widespread praise across the Argentine
Yes, she has them all on the run
Acknowledging Tangerine's influence over admirers
But her heart belongs to just one
Declaring Tangerine's heart is devoted to a single person
Her heart belongs to just Tangerine
Reiteration of Tangerine's exclusive love
Yes, she has them all on the run
-But her heart belongs to just one
Reaffirmation of Tangerine's impact on others
Her heart belongs to Tangerine
Final confirmation of Tangerine's exclusive love
