I'd like to tell you a story about
What one dance can do
One dance can do
One dance can do

A listen up

After one dance on the floor
She came back, wanting for more, for more
Now I don't know what it is that I've got
What she whispered it was so nice, so nice
But her man is sitting across the way
And he could hear the things I say
Now he watches from the corner of his eyes
So a move like this would be so unwise

Ooh ooh, he's standing ina my way
Standing in my way hey

You could see
She was more than ready
To make the move with me anytime
Not even thinking of the consequences, oh no no
So I had to think quickly
Cause her man his face was looking oh so mean
As if anytime, he could create a scene
So gently I pushed her away
Ooh ooh, he wants to spoil the play

He's standing in my way, hey
He's standing in my way

Now I understand how he feels
But I wish he'd give me a little room
I know he's got himself a raw deal
But I'd like to leave with this lady soon
I didn't mean, to be so unkind
But I had more than two but one was looking fine
Big spender he was, had to have his own way
Thought he'd leave, but he stayed

Still standing in my way
Standing in my way
Standing in my way hey
Standing in my way
That's what one dance can do
One dance can do
