Slow Dancin’ Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
I catch your reflection
Through smoke filled ayes
I begin my inspection
And I'm watchin' you
Your smooth syncopation
You synthesize
Your beatin' vibration
Makes me watchin' you
(And) If I smiled at you
Would you walk away
Or would you have this dance with me
[Chorus:]
Slow dancin' (Slow dancin')
Slow dancin' (Slow dancin')
Slow dancin' (Slow dancin')
Yeah, just you and me, baby, oh babe
[Verse 2:]
Something about your freaky ways
Gives me a shiver
I watch you
You're a smooth operator
With sexy eyes, in anticipation
I watch you (I watch you, too)
(And) If I smiled at you
Would you walk away
Or would you have this dance with me
[Chorus:]
Slow dancin' (Slow dancin')
(Slow dancin', slow dancin')
So fine (Slow dancin')
Oh baby, slow (Slow dancin')
And goin' low (Slow dancin')
Oh just you and me
Oh you dance with, oh you dance with
Oh you dance with, oh you dance with me
Just round and round, and dance slow
La la la slow, la la la dancin'
Slow dancin', slow dancin'
Slow dancin', just you and me, babe
Dance with me, dance with me, baby, oh
(Slow dancin') Let's go grindin'
Just you and me
Baby, just one slow dance
Baby, just one slow grind
Baby, let's get down low
And see what we will find
Baby, just one slow dance
Let's give it just one slow grind
Chaka just get down low
And see what we will find
(And) If I smiled at you
Would you walk away
Or would you have this dance with me
Dancin' (Slow dancin')
(Slow dancin', slow dancin')
Just you and me
(Slow dancin') Baby, let's dance
(Slow dancin') Baby, get slower
(Slow dancin') Try to get lower
(Slow dancin') You and me, babe
(Slow dancin') Baby, let's dance
(Slow dancin') Baby, get slower
(Slow dancin') Try to get lower
(Slow dancin') Let's go grindin'
