Dancing, romancing
But no second chancing
Nothing more

Running and hiding
Slipping and sliding
Across the floor


She comes alone every night
On her own looking for romance

She stands there watching
While everyone's touching
She'd take a chance

Standing there waiting, anticipating

How could this go wrong

So many lovers holding on
How could this go wrong
Another night goes on and on


Now everyone's faking
Hearts have been breaking

Across the floor
He's on the making
She's for the taking

Nothing more

From the look in her eyes

She is desperately searching
For something to say
And as he calls her over

They're getting closer
She'll find a way


Looking for something
Suddenly touching


How could this go wrong
It's what she needed all along
How could this go wrong

And so the night goes on and on

Dancing, romancing

No second chancing
Across the floor
He's on the making

She's for the taking
Nothing more


Still she comes alone
Every night on her own
Looking for romance

She stands there watching
While everyone's touching
She'd take a chance


Standing there waiting
Anticipating

Looking for something
Suddenly touching


How could this go wrong
She thought he loved her all along
How could this go wrong

So many lovers holding on

How could this go wrong

She thought he loved her all along
How could this go wrong
And so the night goes on and on
