I
Jason Mraz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I like to dance and it looks like this
I like to dance and it looks like this
I like to pop and lock
And hit you with a little bit of robot
Gotta hit it, get it, love it, live it
Get a little silly with a lyrical ridiculousness

I like to shake a leg, I like to nod my head
I like to walk into a party with a pirouette
A little move goes a long way
Like a soul train line in the hallway
It's your way, my way, all day

My kind of magic is automatic
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
Even if it's rainin', I'm not complainin'
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing

Every time I feel myself gettin' frantic
Maybe too much coffee did it
I bump up the music, bump up the click
I pick up the speed 'til I'm deep in it
Then I give it a hat tip and just like magic
I feel it come back in it, my body's electric
I'm feeling elastic and super fantastic
And flipping like I know gymnastics

I like to shake a leg, I like to nod my head
I like to make a snow angel while lyin' in my bed
But don't give me no smooth talk
Unless you got a good moonwalk
And smile with your hips, smile with your hips, smile with your hips

My kind of magic is automatic
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
Even if it's rainin', I'm not complainin'
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, now everybody freeze

I like to dance and it looks like this
I like to dance and it looks like this (yeah, lookin' good)
We like to dance and it looks like this (come on)
Smile with your hips, smile with your hips, smile with your hips

My kind of magic is automatic
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
Even if it's rainin', I'm not complainin'
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing
I feel like dancing, I feel like dancing

We feel like dancing, we feel like dancing
We feel like dancing, we feel like dancing




We feel like dancing, we feel like dancing
We feel like dancing, we feel like dancing

Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
And now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my best-est
And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn
To win some or learn some

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing
We are just one big family
And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I been saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find the sky is yours
So please don't please don't please don't
There's no need to complicate
'Cause our time is short
This, oh this, this is our fate, I'm yours

I used to sit on my bed and my dad would play his guitar and sing this to me. My dad passed away the first of January this year. This song is a treasured thing.

Kaeli H So sweet! Sorry for your loss. This is one of my favorites too. My mom used to play this all the time when I was little in her disheveled jeep. Brings back nice memories. 😊
