Slow Jam (Live) Lyrics
Midnight Star
Lyrics
I was all alone
I was feeling rather low
I needed someone to
Lift my spirits up
So I dropped it 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
Play another slow jam
This time make it sweet
On a slow jam for my baby and for me
Play another slow jam
This time make it sweet
On a slow jam
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
Play another slow jam
This time make it sweet
On a slow jam
Play another slow jam
This time make it sweet
On a slow jam
Play another slow jam
This time make it sweet
On a slow jam
Play another slow jam
This time make it sweet
On a slow jam
Play another slow jam
This time make it sweet
On a slow jam
Play another slow jam
This time make it sweet
On a slow jam
