Píseň: Would You Like To Dance

Interpret:
Joan Armatrading
Album:
What's Inside
Want you
And I don't know
What to do


Should I try to meet
You after work
By coincidence


Should I make a beeline
To your door ring your bell
Ask someone to introduce us


Hey baby would you like to dance
Would you like to see my yacht


Should I faint right at your feet
Walk right up and ask you
If you want to take a chance on me


Or start a conversation
With an old time melody


I'll treat you like a newborn child
Show a lot of self restraint


I want your loving
Can't live without you
Said I need your loving need your loving


Don't leave it too late
Said I need your loving need your loving


Hey baby would you like to dance
I'd show a lot of self restraint


I want your loving
Can't live without you
And I need your loving need your loving
Can't live without you
Said I need your loving need your loving


[Chorus:]
Hey baby would you like to dance
We could have a fine romance
Would you like to see my yacht
I'll give you every little thing I got


Treat you like a newborn child
Protect you from the world outside
Show a lot of self restraint


Until you say you're really ready


[Chorus]


Don't leave it too late
Said I need your loving, need your loving


[Chorus]
