Lyrics
Hey, we heard the news that someone's crying the blues
'Cause words still go unsaid as hungry minds are never fed
Take a chance as you dance in romance
In a trance to advance and expand
Got a dime and a rhyme brilliant mind
Still inclined in your prime to design
For man's great strength to meet another trembling heart's defeat
Is read between the lines when change of mind is hard to find
The blossoms that you reap from binding challenges complete
And wisdom's gentle rain immensely crowns your brain
Take a chance as you dance in romance
In a trance to advance and expand
Moving soon, upper room
Paid your dues 'cause you're through feelin' blue
Take a chance as you dance in romance
In a trance to advance and expand
Got a dime and a rhyme brilliant mind
Still inclined in your prime to design
Moving soon, upper room
Paid your dues 'cause you're through feelin' blue
Writer(s): Maurice White, Verdine White, Al Mckay, Lorenzo Dunn, Fred White, Philip James Bailey
