Lyrics

We started dancing and love put us into a groove As soon as we started to move The music played while our bodies displayed through the dance Then love picked us up for romance I thought it was clear The plan was we would share this feeling just between ourselves But when the music changed the plan was rearranged He went to dance with someone else We started dancing and love put us into our groove But now he's with somebody new What does love want me to do Love said.. Chorus: Let the music play, he won't get away Just keep the groove and then he'll come back to you again Let it play Let the music play, he won't get away This groove he can't ignore, he won't leave you anymore He tried pretending our dance is just a dance but I see He's dancing his way back to me Yes he discovered we are truly lovers Magic from the very start Cause love just can't we prove And anytime we move And even though we danced apart So we started dancing and love put us into our groove As soon as we started to move, as soon as we started to move Love said.. Chorus He tried pretending our dance is just a dance but I see He's dancing his way back to me, he's dancing his way back to me Love said.. Chorus
