Verse:
The stately palms sway exotic'lly in the night,
While breezes seem to sing a languorous melody;
The twinkling stars gleam hypnotic'lly in the night,
Oh, this is heavenly,
Yes, this is ecstasy;
Chorus:
Tropical magic,
Strange fascination,
Moon of temptation
In a black velvet sky.
Tropical magic,
Lost in your splendor,
Love will surrender
To a passionate sigh.
Whispering shadows out of a midnight
Whisper, "Maņana," but never, "Goodbye."
Music is playing
Tropical magic,
You'll have me saying
Adios to my heart,
Adios to my heart.
