Sabre Dance
Russ Case and his Orchestra Lyrics

My heart begins to tingle when the bells begin to jingle
I feel a rush of excitement when I hear the jingling bells

Zig-idee, zing, zing, zing, zig-I-dee zing zing Zig-I-dee zing zing, zig-I-dee zing zing, Ev'ry time they play the sabre dance,
The rhythm of the Sabre Dance makes me feel invigorated and energized

My heart beats try to capture all the rhythm and the rapture; Zig-idee, zing, zing, zing, zig-I-dee zing zing Zig-I-dee zing zing, zig-I-dee zing zing, Ev'ry time they play the sabre dance.
I can't help but move to the beat of the Sabre Dance, entranced by its captivating melody

I love the spell I'm under when the drums begin to thunder, Boom-I-dee boom boom, boom-I-dee boom boom, Boom-I-dee boom boom, boom-I-dee boom boom, Like the tempo of a tropic rain,
The pounding of the drums makes me feel like I'm lost in a tropical downpour, completely immersed in the music

When I hear trumpets blaring I can feel adventure flaring; Ra-ta-ta tat tat, ra-ta-ta tat tat Ra-ta-ta tat tat, ra-ta-ta tat tat I am in a mood I can't explain,
The trumpets evoke a sense of adventure within me, and I find myself lost in the moment with an indescribable feeling

I drift to an isle of perfume where summer roses eternally bloom, There is a golden gleam waits my one wonderful dream; Soon in a garden for two, Lips cling to mine in the shadowy blue; Arms filled with sweet delight hold me tight all through the night.
The music takes me away to a place of eternal summer, where I am lost in a romantic dream with my lover

Music take me don't forsake me, Let me be a ship lost at sea that the winds rock and roll; Whirling, swirling, twirling, out of control, That music drives me crazy, Ev'rything becomes so hazy;
I surrender to the power of the music, letting it take me on a wild ride, where everything else fades away

Drums are booming, cellos zooming, Cymbals crashing, sabres flashing in a willy nilly sort of way, I seem to hear it night and day; Blending in romantic fashion, melody, moonlight and passion, Riding high on heaven's highway, Purple stars are guiding my way;
The music transforms into a passionate and romantic experience, with instruments interweaving to create a magical atmosphere

I am like a comet whizzing by, Just when I get the feeling that the universe Is reeling, suddenly the song is ending; And I find that I'm descending like a star That's falling from the sky, Toppling! Twisting! Tumbling! And down and down and down and down and Roun' and roun' and roun' and roun' and Down and down and down and down,
As the song draws to a close, I feel like a shooting star falling back to earth, spinning and tumbling through the sky

And I begin to spin into a trance Ev'ry time they play that sabre dance
The Sabre Dance has an intense and hypnotic effect on me, and I can't help but get lost in its rhythm every time I hear it
