Rock With You
Jackson (Michael) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Girl, close your eyes
Let that rhythm get into you
Don't try to fight it
There ain't nothing that you can do
Relax your mind
Lay back and groove with mine

You gotta feel that heat
And we can ride the boogie
Share that beat of love

I wanna rock with you (all night)
Dance you into day (sunlight)
I wanna rock with you (all night)
We're gonna rock the night away (rock, right)

Out on the floor
There ain't nobody there but us
Girl, when you dance
There's a magic that must be love
Just take it slow
'Cause we got so far to go

When you feel that heat
And we're gonna ride the boogie
Share that beat of love

I wanna rock with you (all night)
Dance you into day (sunlight)
I wanna rock with you (all night)
We gon' rock the night away (rock, right)

And when the groove is dead and gone (yeah)
You know that love survives
So we can rock forever, on

I wanna rock with you
I wanna groove with you

Wanna rock (all night)
With you, girl (sunlight)
Rock with you, rock with you, yeah (all night)
Dance the night away (rock, right)

I wanna rock with you, yeah (all night)
Rock you into day (sunlight)
I wanna rock with you (all night)
Rock the night away (rock, right)

Feel the heat, feel the beat (all night)
(Woo)
Rock you into day (sunlight)




I wanna rock (all night)
Rock the night away (rock, right)

Overall Meaning

In Michael Jackson's hit song "Rock With You," the lyrics suggest a dance-centered fantasy with a woman. The entire song is a play-by-play guide on how to dance with someone you're attracted to. The chorus of the song, "I want to rock with you all night, dance you into day" speaks volumes. Michael Jackson urges the woman to let the rhythm get into her, and she shouldn't try and fight it because there is nothing that she can do. He asks her to relax her mind and groove with him. He also wants her to "feel that heat" and "ride the boogie" as they share the beat of love together.


The lyrics in the song suggest an intimate dance filled with nothing but two beautiful souls swaying and dancing under the sun and moon. The lyrics also speak about the power of magic and love in the air. The song leaves a lasting message that when the music has ended, their love would still survive, and they can rock together forever.
