(Excuse me, may I have this dance?)
I was all alone, I was feeling rather low
I needed someone to lift my spirits up
So I dropped in on a dance
Just to take a glance
And there this sweet lovely thing was
She was more than enough
I asked her for her hand
Said, "Would you like to dance?"
So pleased that I had asked
She quickly took my hand
And we danced and fell in love
On a slow jam yeah, yeah
Play another slow jam, this time make it sweet
On a slow jam, for my baby and for me ooh
Play another slow jam this time make it sweet
On a slow jam (a slow jam, yeah)
Seems what you say is true, I feel the same way too
See I waited all night long
Just to dance with you
And when you touched my hand
I knew you were the man
To turn my world around
And make my dreams come true
The magic in your eyes
Made me realize
That everything I feel
Has got to be real
And we danced and fell in love
On a slow jam oo-ooh
Play another slow jam, this time make it sweet
On a slow jam, for my baby and for me ooh
Play another slow jam this time make it sweet
On a slow jam (a slow jam, yeah)
