There's no fear

There's no fear to be ourselves

We breathe again

And I can't breathe without your love

My baby

Don't tease me

It's crazy

So close to the edge of this love

Bounce with my lady, bounce with my lady all night long

Dance with my lady, dance with my lady, play that song

Bounce with my lady, bounce with my lady all night long

Dance with my lady, dance with my lady, play that song

Play that song

Whoa-whoa

Whoa-whoa

No, I can't stay

I can't stay here on my own

Don't make me wait

Don't run away

I want you

Bounce with my lady, bounce with my lady all night long

Dance with my lady, dance with my lady, play that song

Bounce with my lady, bounce with my lady all night long

Dance with my lady, dance with my lady, play that song

Got me moving in the club tonight

Party's jumping and we feel alright

I love your rhythm and the way you move

Base is thumping and we're in the groove

Bounce with my lady, bounce with my lady all night long (all night)

Dance with my lady, dance with my lady, play that song (play that song)

Bounce with my lady, bounce with my lady all night long (all night)

Dance with my lady, dance with my lady, play that song (play that song)

Bounce with my lady, bounce with my lady all night long

Dance with my lady, dance with my lady, play that song

Bounce with my lady, bounce with my lady all night long

Dance with my lady, dance with my lady, play that song

(Play that song)

(All night)

(Play that song)

(All night)

(Play that song)

(All night)
