Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Girl, close your eyes

Let that rhythm get into you

Don't try to fight it

There ain't nothing that you can do

Relax your mind

Lay back and groove with mine

[PreChorus]

You gotta feel that heat

And we can ride the boogie

Share that beat of love

[Chorus]

I wanna rock with you (All night)

Dance you into day (Sunlight)

I wanna rock with you (All night)

We're gonna rock the night away

[Verse 2]

Out on the floor

There ain't nobody there but us

Girl, when you dance

There's a magic that must be love

Just take it slow

'Cause we've got so far to go

[PreChorus]

When ya feel that heat

And we're gonna ride the boogie

Share that beat of love

[Chorus]

I wanna rock with you (All night)

Dance you into day (Sunlight)

I wanna rock with you (All night)

We gon' rock the night away

[Bridge]

And when the groove is dead and gone, yeah

You know that love survives

So we can rock forever on

[Refrain]

I wanna rock with you

I wanna groove with you

[Refrain]

I wanna rock with you

I wanna groove with you

[Chorus]

I wanna rock (All night)

With you, girl (Sunlight)

Rock with you, rock with you, yeah (All night)

Dance the night away

[Chorus]

I wanna rock with you, yeah (All night)

Rock you into day (Sunlight)

I wanna rock with you (All night)

Rock the night away

[Outro]

Feel the heat, feel the beat (All night)

Rock you into day (Sunlight)

I wanna rock (All night)

Rock the night away
