Kiki Dee - THE MAN WHO LOVED TO DANCE Lyrics

I thought I knew

The man who loved to dance

When I marked him on my card

For I knew then in advance

I fell to pieces

I didn't stand a chance

For the way he comes and goes

And the way the band keeps playing

My steps I thought to dance

You're the man

The man who loved to dance


Oh it's so rarely

As long as he's near me

Shouldn't I let him know


Could I be jealous

Or am I just nervous

Tell me that he's the same

Play on sweet songs for the man

The man who loved to dance

And before the night is gone

I swear that they will play my song again tonight


I did it for romance

I did it for a fleeting glance

But most of all I will recall

I will recall

I did it for the man

The man who loved to dance
