Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One, two, one, two, three
[Verse 2]
Alright
Dancing in the daylight
Dancing in the daylight
Alone at the party, that's where it started
That's where it usually ends
But I caught you lookin' at me from the kitchen
Havin' a drink with a friend
[Verse 3]
I don't dance, I can't dance, I don't dance when I'm sober
That's what she said, don't go to bed
But I've had a drink and the night's nearly over
But when I'm ahead, now, we're dancin' in the daylight
Yeah, we are, she said, "Kiss me when it feels right"
So I did, it was quarter past midnight
When we met, now we're dancing in the daylight
And we ain't finished yet
[Verse 4]
I've been waiting all my life for a night like this
And a midnight kiss
I've been waiting all my life for a girl like this
To share it with
[Verse 5]
Dance, d-d-dance, kiss me and dance
Dancing in the daylight
Dance, d-d-dance, d-d-d-dance
D-d-dancing in the daylight
[Verse 6]
Here in the moonlight, you got me so psyched
Don't want the night to end
'Cause I'd watch the sunrise, with you for a lifetime
And I'd do it all again
[Verse 7]
I don't dance, I can't dance, I don't dance, when I'm sober
That's what she said, don't go to bed
But I've had a drink and the night's nearly over
But when I'm ahead, now, we're dancing in the daylight
Yeah, we are, she said, "Kiss me when it feels right"
So I did, it was quarter past midnight
When we met, now we're dancing in the daylight
And we ain't finished yet
[Verse 8]
I've been waiting all my life for a night like this
And a midnight kiss
I've been waiting all my life for a girl like this
To share it with
[Verse 9]
Dance, d-d-dance kiss me and dance
D-d-dancing in the daylight
Dance, d-d-dance, d-d-d-dance
D-d-dancing in the daylight
[Verse 10]
Now we're dancing in the daylight
Yeah, we are, she said, "Kiss me when it feels right"
So I did, it was quarter past midnight
When we met, now we're dancing in the daylight
And we ain't finished yet
[Verse 11]
I've been waiting all my life for a night like this
And a midnight kiss
I've been waiting all my life for a girl like this
To share it with
[Verse 12]
Dance, d-d-dance, kiss me and dance
D-d-dancing in the daylight
Dance, d-d-dance, d-d-d-dance
D-d-dancing in the daylight
