YOU JUST HAVE TO WALK

IN THE PLACE

AND ALL EYES (AND ALL EYES)

ARE ON YOU (ARE ON YOU)

YOU COULD PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE

AND YOU LIGHT UP THE ROOM

BUT THEN YOU LEFT ME DANCING

ON THE FLOOR ALONE

AND NOW THE DJ'S GONE

AND ALL THE LIGHTS ARE ON

YOU SEE I TRIED TO FIND YOU

BUT WORDS CAN'T DESCRIBE YOU

BABY ONLY ONE DANCE AIN'T ENOUGH

OH MY LOVE

YOU'RE A STAR

LIKE A WORK OF ART

WHEREVER YOU ARE

YOU'LL ALWAYS BE THE ONE WHO

GOT AWAY (GOT AWAY)

AND NOW I CAN'T FORGET YOU

HOW COULD I LET YOU

LEAVE ME DANCING ON THE FLOOR ALONE

AND NOW THE DJ'S GONE

AND ALL THE LIGHTS ARE ON

YOU SEE I TRIED TO FIND YOU

BUT WORDS CAN'T DESCRIBE YOU

BABY ONLY ONE DANCE AIN'T ENOUGH

OH MY LOVE

WHERE DID YOU GO?

WHERE DID YOU GO NOW?

I WANNA KNOW
