Lyrics
Dance with me
Dance with me
Dance with me
Dance with me
Dance with me
Oh, hold me closer, closer and closer
Much closer while the music plays
My little darling won't you dance with me?
Oh, hold me tighter, tighter and tighter
Much tighter while the rhythm sways
Put your lips to mine
While the music plays
We're no longer strangers
Now we're more than friends
So dance with me, dance with me closer
Closer and closer
And maybe we'll be lovers when the music ends
Dance with me, dance with me closer
Closer and closer
And maybe we'll be lovers when the music ends
Darling, won't you please? (Dance, dance, dance)
Darling, won't you please? (Dance, dance, dance)
Darling, won't you please? (Dance, dance, dance)
(Dance, dance, dance)
(Dance, dance, dance)
(Dance, dance, dance)
