 Dance The Night Lyrics in English

💡 Baby, you can find me under the lights
💎 Diamonds under my eyes
🎶 Turn the rhythm up, don’t you wanna just
🚗 Come along for the ride?
👗 Pull my outfits up tight
💓 You can see my heartbeat tonight
🔥 I can take the heat, baby, best believe
✨ That’s the moment I shine


💃 ‘Cause every romance shakes and it bends
❌ Don’t give a damn
🌙 When the night’s here, I don’t do tears
❌ Baby, no chance
💃 I could dance, I could dance, I could dance


🎵 Watch me dance
💃 Dance the night away
🔥 My heart could be burning, but you won’t see it on my face
🎵 Watch me dance
💃 Dance the night away
🎉 I still keep the party running, not one hair out of place


🌟 Lately, I’ve been moving close to the edge
😎 Still be looking my best
🎶 I stay on the beat, you can count on me
✅ I ain’t missing no steps


💃 ‘Cause every romance shakes and it bends
❌ Don’t give a damn
🌙 When the night’s here, I don’t do tears
❌ Baby, no chance
💃 I could dance, I could dance, I could dance


🎵 Watch me dance
💃 Dance the night away
🔥 My heart could be burning, but you won’t see it on my face
🎵 Watch me dance (dance)
💃 Dance the night away (uh-huh)
🎉 I still keep the party running, not one hair out of place


💔 When my heart breaks (they’ll never see it, never see it)
🌍 When my world shakes (I feel alive, I feel alive)
🎭 I don’t play it safe (ooh)
❓ Don’t you know about me? (Uh-huh)
💃 I could dance, I could dance, I could dance


💎 Even when the tears are flowing like diamonds on my face
🎉 I still keep the party going, not one hair out of place (yes, I can)
💎 Even when the tears are flowing like diamonds on my face (yes, I can, yes, I can)
🎉 I still keep the party going, not one hair out of place


🎵 Watch me dance
💃 Dance the night away (uh-huh)
🔥 My heart could be burning, but you won’t see it on my face
🎵 Watch me (dance) dance
💃 Dance the night away (uh-huh)
🎉 I still keep the party running, not one hair out of place


💔 When my heart breaks (they’ll never see it, never see it)
🌍 When my world shakes (I feel alive, I feel alive)
🎭 I don’t play it safe (ooh)
❓ Don’t you know about me? (Uh-huh)
💃 I could dance, I could dance, I could dance


💃 Dance the night
