[English]

If you dance, I'll dance

And if you don't, I'll dance anyway

Give peace a chance

Let the fear you have fall away

I've got my eye on you

I've got my eye on you

Say yes to Heaven

Say yes to me

Say yes to Heaven

Say yes to me

If you go, I'll stay

You come back, I'll be right here

Like a barge at sea

In the storm, I stay clear

'Cause I've got my mind on you

I've got my mind on you

Say yes to Heaven

Say yes to me

Say yes to Heaven

Say yes to me

...

If you dance, I'll dance

I'll put my red dress on, get it on

And if you fight, I'll fight

It doesn't matter, now it's all gone

I've got my mind on you

I got my mind on you

Say yes to Heaven

Say yes to me

Say yes to Heaven

Say yes to me

I've got my eye on you

I've got my eye on you, hmm

I've got my eye on you

I've got my eye on you

...
