Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dance, will you dance with me all night?
your arms will hold me tight
dance until the morning light
Oh oh oh oh ... (x3)
Dance, will you dance with me all night?
your arms will hold me tight
dance until the morning light
(x3)

Oh oh oh oh ... (x3)
I hope you come and find my heart
i've always loved you from the start
at the right time you'll be mine
then our love will always shine
Baby say that you'll be mine
Dance, will you dance with me all night?
your arms will hold me tight
dance until the morning light
(x3)
Oh oh oh oh ... (x3)

Dance with me all night...
Oh oh oh oh ...
