When she asks me to dance I say no no I have two left feet The she took my hand and wispered a song so sweet She says hold me as close as you can 'till my body's on fire Its just a vertical expression, a horisontal desire So we moved like water being poured over polished steel And I realy can't translate the way she makes me feel And the music played abnd mercury just wnet hire It's a vertical expression a horisontal desire Chorus We did the samba, the mambo the tango the two step while we romansed And when the music got faster we just heldto each other and slow dance Bridge I took nothing for granted but I wished I could stay all night And as we walked into her place she reached out to dim the lights She said dance with me darling till the monn and the stars retire It's just a vertical expression a horisontal desire (X2)
