The song is a mash...
[Verse 1]
Rhythm is a dancer; it's a soul's companion
People feel it everywhere
Lift your hands and voices
Free your mind and join us
You can feel it in the air
Oh-oh, it's a passion
Oh-oh, you can feel it in the air
Oh-oh, it's a passion
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
(This is the rhythm) You can put some joy up on my face
Oh, sunshine in an empty place
Take me to, turn to and babe, I'll make you stay
Oh, I can ease you of your pain
Feel you give me love again
Round and round we go
Each time I hear you say
[Chorus]
"This is the rhythm of the night, the night, oh, yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life, my life, oh, yeah
The rhythm of my life"
This is the rhythm of the night, the night, oh, yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life, my life, oh, yeah
The rhythm of my life
[Verse 3]
Won't you teach me how to love and learn?
There'll be nothing left for me to yearn
Think of me and burn and let me hold your hand
I don't want to face the world in tears
Please think again, I'm on my knees
Sing that song to me
No reason to repent
[Chorus]
This is the rhythm of the night, the night, oh, yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life, my life, oh, yeah
The rhythm of my life
This is the rhythm of the night, the night, oh, yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life, my life, oh, yeah
The rhythm of my life
[Outro]
This is the rhythm of the night, the night, oh, yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life, my life, oh, yeah
The rhythm of my life
This is the rhythm of the night, the night, oh, yeah
