[English]

I've been working

And I spend my time

Dreaming about how I could ease my mind

Breakbeat, dance

Feels like I can fly

Give me some space so I can close my eyes

I don't look in the crowd

Baby, even when the lights come down

I like to dance like I'm alone in the room

I'm here tonight

Baby, to do what I do, yeah

You make me watch your step when you move

You make me watch your step when you move

You make me watch your step when you move

Now what you're doing's making me move with you

...

I'm free tonight

Don't want this to end

I'm here alone and you can leave your friends

Breakbeat, dance

And we don't pretend

Dreaming together, now our rhythms blend

I don't look in the crowd

Baby, even when the lights come down

I like to dance like I'm alone in the room

I'm here tonight

Baby, to do what I do, yeah

You make me watch your step when you move

(Watch your step when you move)

You make me watch your step when you move

(Watch your step when you move)

You make me watch your step when you move

(Watch your step when you move)

Now what you're doing's making me move with you

You make me watch your step when you move

You make me watch your step when you move

You make me watch your step when you move

(Watch your step when you move)

Now what you're doing's making me move with you

...

With you, with you, with you

With you, with you

Watch your step when you move (with you)

Now what you're doing's making me move with you

I don't look in the crowd

Baby, even when the lights come down

I like to dance like I'm alone in the room

I'm here tonight

Baby, to do what I do, yeah

You make me watch your step when you move

(Watch your step when you move)

You make me watch your step when you move

(Watch your step when you move)

You make me watch your step when you move

(Watch your step when you move)

Now what you're doing's making me move with you

With you, with you, with you, with you

With you, with you, with you, with you
