[Verse 1]

       
 She was more 

           
like a beauty 

              
queen, from a 


movie scene,
       
 I said; don't

              
 mind, but wha

           
t do you mean;

     
 I am the one?
              
Who will dance

              
 on the floor,

              
 in the round.
          
She said; I am

          
 the one, who 

              
will dance on 

              
the floor, in 

   (
the round.

 Then every he

h eyes that dr

         
eamed of being

     
 the one,
              
Who will dance
