Lyrics

[Intro]
Rock
[Verse 1]
I looked at you, you stole my heart
You were all that I anticipated
I wanted you, every part
But I knew love would be complicated
[PreChorus]
I begin to touch, but you wouldn't let it
It never seemed to be the right time
Started to give up, down to the limit
And then you changed your mind, oh
[Chorus]
And we begin to rock steady
Steady rocking all night long
And we begin to rock steady
Rocking till the break of dawn
[Verse 2]
You looked at me, to my surprise
You were too anticipating
I shoulda knew, it was in your eyes
That you were getting tired of waiting
[PreChorus]
You wanted me so much, but I didn't get it
How could a brother be so blind?
I started to give up, but love wouldn't let it
Then you walked into my life
[Chorus]
And we begin to rock steady
Steady rocking all night long
And we begin to rock steady
Rocking till the break of dawn
[Chorus]
Rock steady
Steady rocking all night long (All night long)
Rock steady
Rocking till the break of dawn (Rocking till the break of dawn)
[Bridge]
Rock
Steady
Rock steady, baby
Rock
[PreChorus]
You wanted me so much, but I didn't get it
How could a fella be so blind?
I started to give up, but love wouldn't let it
Then you walked into my life
[Chorus]
And we begin to rock steady
Steady rocking all night long (All night long)
Rock steady
Rocking till the break of dawn
[Chorus]
Everybody, rock steady (Steady rock)
Steady rocking all night long
Everybody steady rocking
Rock steady
Rocking till the break of dawn (Rocking till the break of dawn)
[Outro]
Everybody steady rocking
