[Intro] [Verse 1] Come gather close, Fireside Friends, The music's calling once again, A step begins, a glance replies, Two hearts learning how to fly. No need to speak the same old way, The rhythm finds the words to say, One step forward, one step near— The music makes the meaning clear. [Refrain 1 - Dramatic] And there's a little lemon on the table tonight, A little spark of yellow in the candlelight, Sweet and bright with a tang of its own— Like every different heart we've known. [Chorus - Strings Swell] There's a fire in the tango, There's a story in the floor, A little give, a little take, Then we find a little more. There's a fire in the tango, Not a flame that burns apart— It's the heat of moving together, It's the meeting of the heart. So come on, Fireside Friends, Let the music be our guide— A little lemon, a little fire, And a whole world dancing side by side. [Verse 2] There's no need to change the steps To make another culture ours, We learn them with respect and joy, And let them show us who they are. The music carries history, The dancers carry it with grace, And when we learn to listen first, We make a little room for space. [Refrain 2 - Dramatic] So raise a glass of something bright, Let laughter mingle with the night, That lemon tang reminds us too— A different flavor can be good for you. [Chorus - Strings Swell] There's a fire in the tango, There's a story in the floor, A little give, a little take, Then we find a little more. There's a fire in the tango, Not a flame that burns apart— It's the heat of moving together, It's the meeting of the heart. So come on, Fireside Friends, Let the music be our guide— A little lemon, a little fire, And a whole world dancing side by side. [Instrumental Solo] [Bridge] One culture brings a rhythm, Another brings an ear, We don't have to lose ourselves To welcome something near. And if our steps aren't perfect, Well, that's part of learning too— A dance becomes a conversation When I listen close to you. [Final Chorus - Strings Swell] There's a fire in the tango, Feel it rising with the beat, Every pause and every turning step, Every time our rhythms meet. There's a fire in the tango, And tonight we're sharing light— With a little lemon on the table And a whole lot of heart tonight. [Refrain 3 - Soft and Passionate] So come on, Fireside Friends, Take your partner by the hand— We'll dance with joy, we'll learn with grace, And let the music cross the land. [Outro - Strings Swell then Fade] A little lemon... A little fire... A little music lifting higher... Different flavors, one bright song— Many hearts... Where we all belong.
