Lyrics
DANCE LIKE NOBODY'S WATCHIN?
Verse /
Part of me is afraid to know
What is up ahead farther down the road
Then there?s other times I can barely wait
To scratch the itch, I wouldn?t hesitate
Self-conscience now is what I seem to be
Over what I feel between you and me
There?s a simple truth in what a wise man said
His words keep ringin? in my head
Chorus /
Dance like nobody?s watchin?
Love like you?ve never been hurt
Work like you don?t need the money, cause honey
Everything?ll turn out right I know this fact for sure
Lets dance
Verse /
I?ve been turn down once or twice
Yeah, but that?s okay, it wasn?t paradise
Superficial?s easy, yeah but in the end
The trick in love is how to stay friends
Unplug the phone, turn out the lights
We?ve got three more hours ?till its daylight
A pound of caution maybe sound advise
Even fairytale livin?s got sugar and spice
Chorus /
Dance like nobody?s watchin?
Love like you?ve never been hurt
Work like you don?t need the money, cause honey
Everything?ll turn out right I know this fact for sure
Dance like there is no tomorrow
Kiss like you burn with desire
What goes around will come around behind you
When you least expect a change, someone
Just became closer to you, so lets dance
Bridge /
Poets always seem to know how to write the situation
For guys like me its hard to show what we feel inside
Repeat / Dance, like nobody?s watchin?
Come-on Dance, like there?s no tomorrow?
