Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’m giving you it all or nothing at all
I’m waiting for your call and hoping you fall for me
Tryna keep my head out the way
I’ll make room in my heart
I’m hoping you stay, hoping you wait
I’m asking for your patience
You’re needing affirmation
And I’m breaking my own rules
Find a way so I don’t lose you

[Chorus]
I think you really wanna dance with me
How could you really wanna dance with me?
Do you really wanna dance?
If you don’t like me then, you won’t like me now
You wanna have another dance with me
So you really wanna dance with me?
Should I be giving you a chance?
If you don’t like me then, you won’t like me now

[Verse 2]
I’m running out of time, you’re taking it all
You make me wanna stay here (Stay here)
When I’m with you, I forget the hours
Every minute is a season changing with you
It’s so easy, sunny days (So easy, sunny days)
Will you hold me through the rain? (You hold me through the rain)
I wanna know will it be safe if I let you in this space
No one’s ever stayed so long

[Chorus]
I think you really wanna dance with me
How could you really wanna dance with me?
Do you really wanna dance?
If you don’t like me then, you won’t like me now
You wanna have another dance with me
So you really wanna dance with me?
Should I be giving you a chance?
If you don’t like me then, you won’t like me now

[Bridge]
You lead the way (You lead the way), I’ll follow you here
And I won’t run (And I won’t run), no, I won’t run
We’ll find a place (We’ll find a way), I’ll meet you right here
Can we hold on, can we hold on?

[Chorus]
I think you really wanna dance with me
How could you really wanna dance with me?
Do you really wanna dance?
If you don’t like me then, you won’t like me now
You wanna have another dance with me
So you really wanna dance with me?
Should I be giving you a chance?
If you don’t like me then, you won’t like me now

[Outro]
Don’t like me then, you won’t like me now
Won’t like me na-now
If you don’t like me then, you won’t like me now
Don’t like me then, won’t like me now
Don’t like me then, won’t like me now
Hey
Ooh, yeah
