[Verse 1] You walked in and the horns all stood at ease The drummer tipped his hat to your gentle breeze There's no downbeat that can match your stride If rhythm had a dress, you'd wear it with pride [Verse 2] The bandleader smiled, then he changed the key Like he knew you were meant for this melody The dance floor cleared, just to watch you move Even the chandeliers forgot how to prove [Pre-Chorus] The way you sway makes the room forget how to spin You move like a secret the night keeps tucked in Stay in this three-minute world with me Let the last dance be our whole biography The way you sway... and I lose all my cool The way you sway... turns me back into a fool Save me that last bit of moonlight Before the suit goes back on the hanger tonight[Chorus] [Verse 3] Your fingers brush mine and the trumpets sigh Like they know that a moment like this can't die The bass walks slow just to keep your pace And heaven leans in just to see your face [Pre-Chorus] The way you sway makes the clocks rewind You steal every heartbeat I thought was mine Stay in this two-step spell we made Let the morning wait outside, afraid The way you sway... and I lose all my cool The way you sway... turns me back into a fool Save me that last bit of moonlight Before the suit goes back on the hanger tonight[Chorus] **** If dancing is dreaming with both feet on fire Then wake me up never, you're all I desire The band can go home, but I'll pay them to stay As long as you're here and you sway[Bridge] The way you sway... and I lose all my cool The way you sway... and I lose all my cool[Final Chorus] So sway... just sway... the night’s still ours Till the last star falls from the ballroom towers[Outro]
