Текст песни I Want To See You As A Dancer - Remastered - Franco Battiato

I want to see you as a dancer
Like the desert gypsy women
With candelabras on their heads
Or like the Balinese on their holidays
I want to see you as a dancer
Like dervishes Tourneur′s
Who twist around, around their back bones
To the sound of ankle bracelets of Katakali
The walls are turning, turning all around us
As we are dancing, dancing
The walls are turning, turning all around us
As we are dancing
And radio Tirana's playing
Music from the Balkan
For Bulgarian dancers
With bare feet they dance on burning embers
In the Oriental Island
In sunny summer dance halls
Couples of old folks are dancing
To a rhythm in seven, eight
The walls are turning, turning all around us
As we are dancing, dancing
The walls are turning, turning all around us
As we are dancing
In the rhythm of the heath
The key of old tribal magical rites
Kingdoms of the Shamans
And rebel players on the road again
Down across the plain lands
In sunny summer dance halls
Couples of old folks are dancing
A classical Viennese waltz
