At the Dance Parts 1 and 2
Part One
I saw you in the corner at the dance last night
Moving with the music you looked just right
I nudged you in the middle of a crowded dance floor
I asked if I could see you home to your door.
We had another dance and we had a drink together
I asked if you came alone but you told me never
You made the first move when the music slowed right down
At the dance last night.
Well the boys in the corner have a bit of fun
And they won't go home until they've done
The lights going on, the Police outside
There's gonna be a fight, you'd better pick your side.
Well outside the air was cool but you didn't worry
I got your coat and said "Come on, let's hurry"
You said "What's wrong, let's take it nice and easy"
At the dance last night.
Walking home with you by my side
I, I feel so good you can understand why
I never realised life was so easy
I never thought there could be so much fun
At the dance last night.
Reached the gate and we paused a while
"Here we are then", you start to smile
A kiss goodnight and you close the door
I'm feeling like I never felt before.
Outside the air was cool but I didn't worry
I take my time walking home 'cause I'm in no hurry
There's only one thing on my mind right now
And that's the dance last night.
Oh yeah, at the dance last night
Oh-oh at the dance last night
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah at the dance last night
At the dance last ni-i-i-ight
At the dance last ni-i-i-ight
At the dance last ni-i-i-ight
At the dance last ni-i-i-i-ight
Part 2
Walking home, on my own
Wondering when, will I see her again
The light shines out, from her room
She draws me back, back with her perfume
Floating in, to her arms, seems a sin
But I drown in her charms
The room spins round, I reach out
I reach out for her face but I find just an empty pace
Just a dream, so it seems
It felt so right, I just can't wait for tonight
I just can't wait, for tonight
I just can't wait, I just can't wait for tonight
I just can't wait, I just can't wait
Just can't wait, I just can't wait for tonight.
Don't make me wait.
