S-Club & S Club Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby
I know I can see what you like
As your standing by the dance floor
Baby
You've got something that you need to find
I can feel it that you want more

Take your body over to the floor
It's much too soon to hit the door
Stop
Let's make it tonight
Don't fake it
There's no need to analyze
Now's the time to recognize
Go
And jump in the light
Invade it

[Chorus]
Dance
Let the music take you over
Dance
Let the beat become your lover
Dance
You can't stop it baby it's your life
Whoa, whoa

Dance
Dance (everybody just dance tonight)

Dance
Dance (oh)

Lately
You've been searching for the other side
There's a feeling to discover
Baby
You can feel it in the air tonight
Let the groove just take you over

Take your body over to the floor
It's much too soon to hit the door
Stop
Let's make it tonight
Don't fake it
There's no need to analyze
Now's the time to recognise
Go
And jump in the light
Invade it

[Chorus: x2]

Dance
Dance

Dance
Dance (yeah yeah)

Dance
Dance (oh dance)

Everybody just dance
I've been thinking
It's time to discover
A new religion
From one to another

[Chorus: x2]

I know 😭😭😭 it hurts so much right now but feels so good. I can't get enough. My brain just warped back to the 90's when I was living back at my old house with my mom in elementary school and remembering the feeling of how those days were 😭😭😭
