Clock strikes upon the hour<br> | |||
And the sun begins to fade<br> | |||
Still enough time to figure out<br> | |||
How to chase my blues away<br> | |||
I've done alright up to now<br> | |||
It's the light of day that shows me how<br> | |||
And when the night falls, loneliness calls<br><br> | |||
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody<br> | |||

I've been in love and lost my senses<br> | |||
Spinning through the town<br> | |||
Sooner or later, the fever ends<br> | |||
And I wind up feeling down<br> | |||
I need a man who'll take a chance<br> | |||
On a love that burns hot enough to last<br> | |||
So when the night falls<br> | |||
My lonely heart calls<br><br> | |||
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody<br> | |||

Somebody who loves me yeah<br> | |||
Somebody oo Somebody oo<br> | |||
To hold me in his arms oh<br> | |||
I need a man who'll take a chance<br> | |||
On a love that burns hot enough to last<br> | |||
