Lyrics
I'd like to tell you a story about
What one dance can do
What one dance can do (one dance can do)
One dance can do (one dance can do)
Ah, listen up
After one dance on the floor
She came back wanting for more (for more)
Now I don't know what it is that I've got
But she whispered, it was so nice (so nice)
But her man is sitting across the way
And he can hear the things I'd say
Now he watches from the corner of his eyes
So a move like this would be so unwise
Ooh, ooh, he's standing in my way
Standing in my way, yea-yea
You could see
She was more than ready (ready)
To make the move with me anytime
Not even thinking of the consequences, no-no-no
So I had to think quickly
'Cause her man, his face was looking oh so mean
As if anytime, he could create a scene
So gently I pushed her away
Ooh, ooh, he wants to spoil the play
He's standing in my way, yea-yea
He's standing in my way
Whoa (whoo-whoo)
Now I understand how he feels
But I wish he'd give me a little room (just a little room)
I know he's got himself a raw deal, whoo-whoo
But I'd like to leave with this lady too
But it mean to be so unkind
But had move into the one, who was looking fine
Big spender he was, had to have his own way
I thought he'd leave
But he stayed
Ooh, ooh, still standing in my way
Standing in my way, yea, yea
Standing in my way
Ooh, ooh, standing in my way, yea
Standing, standing in my way
That's what one dance can do
(Standing in my way)
One dance can do
(Standing in my way)
Still standing in my way
