Come To The Mardi Gras (Alternate Take)
I heard them sing, "Come to the Mardi Gras"
It was Rio in spring, time for Mardi Gras
I saw her there, confetti in her hair
Swept along by the throne, wasn't long 'til we met
When we kissed, my heart beat faster, faster than a castanet
We watched the moon, come to the Mardi Gras
Like a painted balloon at the Mardi Gras
Romance was ours beneath Brazilian stars
Love is there in the air, everywhere that you are
Make your sweetest dreams for two come true
Come to the Mardi Gras
All of Rio was dressed for fiesta that night
With gay tea and laughter, every love was hot, heart was light
Though the town was on a spree, a joy is jubilee
I was lonely, just a stranger, 'til they called to me
I heard them sing, "Come to the Mardi Gras"
It was Rio in spring, time for Mardi Gras
I saw her there, confetti in her hair
Swept along by the throne, wasn't long 'til we met
When we kissed, my heart beat faster, faster than a castanet
We watched the moon, come to the Mardi Gras
Like a painted balloon at the Mardi Gras
Romance was ours beneath Brazilian stars
Love is there in the air, everywhere that you are
Make your sweetest dreams for two come true
Come to the Mardi Gras
Come to the Mardi Gras
It was Rio in spring, time for Mardi Gras
I saw her there, confetti in her hair
Swept along by the throne, wasn't long 'til we met
When we kissed, my heart beat faster, faster than a castanet
We watched the moon, come to the Mardi Gras
Like a painted balloon at the Mardi Gras
Romance was ours beneath Brazilian stars
Love is there in the air, everywhere that you are
Make your sweetest dreams for two come true
Come to the Mardi Gras
All of Rio was dressed for fiesta that night
With gay tea and laughter, every love was hot, heart was light
Though the town was on a spree, a joy is jubilee
I was lonely, just a stranger, 'til they called to me
I heard them sing, "Come to the Mardi Gras"
It was Rio in spring, time for Mardi Gras
I saw her there, confetti in her hair
Swept along by the throne, wasn't long 'til we met
When we kissed, my heart beat faster, faster than a castanet
We watched the moon, come to the Mardi Gras
Like a painted balloon at the Mardi Gras
Romance was ours beneath Brazilian stars
Love is there in the air, everywhere that you are
Make your sweetest dreams for two come true
Come to the Mardi Gras
Come to the Mardi Gras
