DANCIN’ IN THE DARK

DANCIN’ IN THE DARK
Dancing in the dark
Watching all the sparks of heavy sound
Pressed up to the nite
Waiting for the lite, waiting for the lite
Waiting for the lite to hit the ground

Walking down the street
Soaking up the heat of Blue Soul Sound
Ooh! Pressed up to the nite
Waiting for the lite, waiting for the lite
Waiting for the lite to hit the ground

I gotta hear, I gotta see
I gotta set the rhythm free
Gotta, gotta, gotta get around
Gotta get around, get around

Dancing in the dark
Watching all the sparks of heavy sound
Pressed up to the nite
Waiting for the lite, waiting for the lite
Waiting for the lite to hit the ground

Walking down the street
Soaking up the heat of Blue Soul Sound
Ooh! Pressed up to the nite
Waiting for the lite, waiting for the lite
Waiting for the lite to hit the ground

I gotta hear, I gotta see
I gotta set the rhythm free
Gotta, gotta, gotta get around
Gotta get around, get around

Gotta get around
Put my soul into the sound
Gotta hear, gotta see
Gotta set the rhythm free
Gotta get around
Put my soul into the sound
Gotta hear, gotta see
Gotta set the rhythm free

Dancing in the dark
Watching all the sparks of heavy sound
Pressed up to the nite
Waiting for the lite, waiting for the lite
Waiting for the lite to hit the ground

Walking down the street
Soaking up the heat of Blue Soul Sound
Ooh! Pressed up to the nite
Waiting for the lite, waiting for the lite
Waiting for the lite to hit the ground

I gotta hear, I gotta see
I gotta set the rhythm free
Gotta, gotta, gotta get around
Gotta get around, get around
