may i have this dance
May I have this dance I've been waitin' for this chance All night long (all night long) And this night I'll always treasure If I could have the pleasure To escort you  Don't you know I've bit my nails in to Wantin' to dance with you But I was much too shy I never had the nerve Before you'd dance across the floor with another guy The way he held you in his arms With his many charms I knew my chances were slim In order to get to you There's only one thing to do So I got rid of him  Hey Ooh hoo I told him that a girl By the name of pearl Was looking for him And when I turned around He was nowhere to be found  So here I am Oh I gotta have this dance (gotta have this dance with you) Honey I (gotta have this dance with you) Honey I, honey I, honey I, have this dance Honey I (gotta have this dance with you) Gotta have this dance Oh
