It took more courage than you can imagine
To cross the dance floor, and ask her for a dance
Sweaty palm extended
She put her hand in his hand
He lead her to the center of the dance floor
They both embraced and started to sway
The music turned to magic
As they moved their feet
No one can explain it, it just happens that way
Cowboy luck was with him that night
He got a chance to hold an angel in his arms
He thought if he held on real tight
She would want to dance with him for the rest of her life
With each dance step the music pulled them in
Her head was on his shoulder, they were heart to heart
The dance turned into to passion
Then the passion turned into Love
Once the dance floor has you it won't let go
The dance floor was magic (Close your eyes You'll See)
The dance floor was magic (Close your eyes And Believe)
The dance floor was magic (Close your eyes Never move your feet)
(Break)
She was wondering is this the beginning of my life
Can I finally say good bye to my lonely nights
He was wondering was she the one
Have I found her my forever girl
The dance floor was magic (Close your eyes You'll See)
The dance floor was magic (Close your eyes And Believe)
The dance floor was magic (Close your eyes Never move your feet
The dance floor was magic
The dance floor was magic
The dance floor was magic
