Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

Midnight on the avenue

Cars pass in a blur of red

Your hand folded in my own

Two lovers walking slow

I watch the window light

Catch the silver in your smile

Been chasing high forever

Found my fortune right here now

Pre-Chorus

When the night gets long

And the city sings its song

I keep turning to your face

Like a compass finds its place

Chorus

You're the one I dance to

The rhythm in my chest

Every beat a promise

Every step a yes

You're the one I dance to

From the floor to the ceiling high

Hold you through the morning

Till the morning light

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Turn me around

Oh oh oh

Keep me on solid ground

Verse 2

Fingers on the rhodes keys

Soft as summer rain

You hum a little melody

And I sing it back again

The tempo of my heartbeat

Matched to yours alone

Been chasing all my life

Found my home in your arms

Pre-Chorus

When the night spins gold

And the record starts to slow

I keep coming back to you

Like a lover always do

Chorus

You're the one I dance to

The rhythm in my chest

Every beat a promise

Every step a yes

You're the one I dance to

From the floor to the ceiling high

Hold you through the morning

Till the morning light

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Turn me around

Oh oh oh

Keep me on solid ground [Chorus]

You're the one I dance to

The rhythm in my chest

Every beat a promise

Every step a yes

You're the one I dance to

From the floor to the ceiling high

Hold you through the morning

Till the morning light

Outro

Oh oh oh

Dance with me

Oh oh oh

Verse 3

Streetlights fade to morning pink

We're still swaying in the hall

Your laughter echoes off the walls

Like a saxophone at dawn

You trace a line across my palm

Map of every road we've roamed

Thousands miles of turning wheels

Still you're where my journey goes

Pre-Chorus

When the sky turns blue

And the night has danced its dues

I keep holding to your hand

Like a promise understands

Chorus

You're

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Turn me around

Oh oh oh

Keep me on solid ground [Chorus]

You're the one I dance to

The rhythm in my chest

Every beat a promise

Every step a yes

You're the one

Oh oh oh

Turn me around

Oh oh oh

Keep me on solid ground
