## **Lyrics**

**Verse 1**

I saw you dance from the corner

I caught your name in a conversation

**Verse 2**

Playing hard to get

I can understand

**Chorus**

When I look at you, I see the story in your eyes

When we're dancing, the night begins to shine

The night begins to shine (\*3)

When you're dancing, the night begins to shine

**Verse 3**

Dusk to dawn, my heart was racing

I took you home, in the driving rain

Had my mind made up, I wanna feel your touch

**Chorus**

When I look at you, I see the story in your eyes

When we're dancing, the night begins to shine

The night begins to shine (\*3)

When you're dancing, the night begins to shine

**Echo**

The night begins to shine

**Verse 4**

Had my mind made up, I wanna feel your touch

**Chorus**

When I look at you, I see the story in your eyes

When you're dancing, the night begins to shine

The night begins to shine (\*7)

When you're dancing, the night begins to shine

The night begins to shine (\*4)

## Trivia
