may i have this dance |
|
i've been waitin for this chance |
|
all night long (all night long) |
|
and this night i'll always treasure |
|
if i could have the pleasure |
|
to excort you |
|
dont you know i've bit my nails in to |
|
wantin to dance with you |
|
but i was much too shy |
|
i never had the nerve |
|
before you'd dance across the floor with another guy |
|
the way he held you in his arms |
|
with his many charms |
|
i knew my chances were slim |
|
in order to get to you |
|
there's only one thing to do |
|
so i got rid of him |
|
hey |
|
ooh hoo i told him that a girl |
|
by the name of pearl |
|
was looking for him |
|
and when i turned around |
|
he was nowhere to be found |
|
so here i am |
|
ooh i gotta have this dance (gotta have this dance with you) |
|
honey i (gotta have this dance with you) |
|
honey i, honey i, honey i, have this dance |
|
honey i (gotta have this dance with you) |
|
gotta have this dance |
|
oh... |
