Lyrics

I've got the next dance

I've got the next dance with you

Oh, I'll be waiting on you 'cause I...

I've got the next dance

I've got the next dance with you

With you, with you

Sitting here, I've been drinking cheers

Thought I'd have me some fun

Feeling free, being me

While the night's still young

Oh, I've been watching you

(Watching you)

I'm waiting to

(Waiting to)

Well, I've got this in hand

There's a style

(There's a style)

In your smile

(In your smile)

You fit right into my plan

(Yes you do, yes you do)

I've got the next dance

I've got the next dance with you

Well I'll be waiting on you, 'cause I...

I've got the next dance

I've got the next dance with you

With you, with you

You didn't think I saw

You out there on the floor

The truth is I've been watching

Since you walked right in the door

So let me make it clear

The moment that you're near

I'm gonna put my hooks in you

There's nothing you can do

I've got the next dance

I've got the next dance with you

That's what I've been waiting for, yeah, yeah

I've got the next dance

I've got the next dance with you

With you, with you

I'm reaching out, I'm hoping that

You will take me by my hand

Slip your soul right into mine

Say you'll, say you'll be my dancing man

Movements flow, it's time to go

Tell me, your place or mine?

Me and you

(You and me)

'Cause love is new

(Love is new)

Let's try this one more time

(Now this dance is mine)

Now that we have met

I'd really like to get

To know the way you feel

About the things I say

So baby, let me know

'Cause I don't wanna go

So give me all your lovin' and

We'll dance forever more

I've got the next dance

I've got the next dance with you

That's what I've been waiting for, yeah, yeah

I've got the next dance

I've got the next dance with you

With you, with you

I've got the next dance

I've got the next dance with you

Did we do alright tonight?

Can we go all night tonight?

I've got the next dance

I've got the next dance with you

With you, with you

Rock me

'Til I'm ready

Hold me

Hold me steady
