Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Clock strikes upon the hour
And the sun begins to fade
Still enough time to figure out
How to chase my blues away
I've done alright up to now
But it's the light of day that shows me how
And when the night falls
The loneliness calls
[Verse 2]
And, oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
[Verse 3]
I've been in love and lost my senses
Spinning through the town
Sooner or later the fever ends
And I wind up feeling so down
[Verse 4]
I need a man who'll take a chance
On a love that burns hot enough to last
'Cause when the night falls
My lonely heart calls
And it says
[Verse 5]
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
[Verse 6]
And, oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
[Verse 7]
With somebody who loves me, yeah
Who will hold me in his arms
I need a man who will take a chance
On a love that burns hot enough to last
'Cause when the night falls
The loneliness calls
[Verse 8]
Oh, with somebody who loves me
And don't you wanna dance with somebody
Don't you wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
