Ja sam za ples

I wanna dance, oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah

U nekom bistrou tu kod nas na moru
Ja pila sam sok
A tamo za barom, u džuboksu starom
Su svirali rok

Odjednom se stvori, ja čujem govori:
"This is okay" ("This is okay")
Pogled mi sretne, i kaže mi hej

Čujem nešto kao: "Do you wanna dance?"
Mislim da me pita da li sam za ples
(I wanna dance) Oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah

Čujem nešto kao: "Do you wanna dance?"
Mislim da me pita da li sam za ples
(I wanna dance) Oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah

I wanna dance, oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah

U nekom bistrou tu kod nas na moru
Ja pila sam sok
A dolje na plaži, su momci na gaži
Svirali rok

I opet se stvori, ja čujem govori:
"This is okay" ("This is okay")
Pogled mi sretne, i kaže mi hej

Čujem nešto kao: "Do you wanna dance?"
Mislim da me pita da li sam za ples
(I wanna dance) Oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah

Čujem nešto kao: "Do you wanna dance?"
Mislim da me pita da li sam za ples
(I wanna dance) Oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah
I wanna dance, oh…
Ja sam za pleѕ, oh yeah
I wanna dаnce

I'm up for a dance

I wanna dance, oh…
I'm up for a dance, oh yeah

In a café right here by the sea
I was drinking some juice
And over there by the bar, on an old jukebox
Some rock was playing

From out of nowhere he appears, I hear him say:
"This is okay" ("This is okay")
Our eyes meet, and he says hey

I hear something like: "Do you wanna dance?"
I think he's asking me if I want to dance
(I wanna dance) Oh…
I'm up for a dance, oh yeah

I hear something like: "Do you wanna dance?"
I think he's asking me if I want to dance
(I wanna dance) Oh…
I'm up for a dance, oh yeah

I wanna dance , oh…
I'm up for a dance, oh yeah

In a café right here by the sea
I was drinking some juice
Down there at the beach, some guys in a band
Were playing some rock

And he appears again, I can hear him say:
"This is okay" ("This is okay")
Our eyes meet, and he says hey

I hear something like: "Do you wanna dance?"
I think he's asking me if I want to dance
(I wanna dance) Oh…
I'm up for a dance, oh yeah

I hear something like: "Do you wanna dance?"
I think he's aѕking me if I'm up for a dance
(I wanna dance) Oh…
I'm up for a dance, oh yeah
I wanna dance , oh…
I'm up for a dance, oh yeah
I wanna dаnce

I wanna dance

I wanna dance, oh yeah
I've got to let down my hair

Thanks heaven it's Friday, now go tell deejay
The weekend's arrived
The night's so pretty, the beat of the city
Is coming alive

My senses are reeling, I'm getting the feeling
Life is okay (Life is okay)
Open the ceiling, I'm flying away

Turn the music high 'cause I wanna dance
My heart is catching fire 'cause I wanna dance
I wanna dance, oh yeah
I've got to let down my hair

Feel the body rhythm 'cause I wanna dance
Life is there for living, gotta take a chance
I wanna dance, oh yeah
What if it's late? Who cares?

I wanna dance, oh yeah…
What if it's late? Who cares?

My liberation from all the frustration
Of nine to five
Is rockin' and rollin' from nine until morning
That's my kind of life

Taking my shoes off and shaking my blues off
Feeling okay (Feeling okay)
So wind up the jukebox, move out of my way

Turn the music high 'cause I wanna dance
My heart is catching fire 'cause I wanna dance
I wanna dance, oh yeah
I've got to let down my hair

Feel the body rhythm 'cause I wanna dance
Life is meant for living, gotta take a chance
I wanna dance, oh yeah
What if it's late? Who cares?
I wanna dance, oh yeah
What if it's late? Who careѕ?
I wanna dаnce
