CYNDI LAUPER LYRICS - Dancing With A Stranger

"Dancing With A Stranger"



Holding on to the rhythm

I'm standing in my leather and lace

People move to the left, and

Move to the right, and

The whole place starts to shake



Without a net on a real high wire

I'm stepping out with my heels on fire



I started dancing with a stranger

Moving to the break of day

Dancing with a stranger

And I just got swept away



Letting go my inhibitions

Is harder to do than say

But I surrender to the beat

I start shuffling my feet

When I hear that music play



I trip the light fantastic

I touch the sky and it feels like magic



I started dancing with a stranger

Moving to the break of day

Dancing with a stranger

And I just got swept away



Give me a dance, dance

Dancing with a stranger

And it takes my breath away



I ain't looking for mister right

It doesn't matter to me

There's something in the air

Electric I like

Igniting endlessly



I started to dance...



Without a net on a real high wire

I'm stepping out with my heels on fire



I started dancing with a stranger

Moving to the break of day

Dancing with a stranger

And I just got swept away...
