Well you'd never know it
By looking at them
That she was the woman
That walked in with him
He danced every dance
While she watched from her chair
And he carried on
Like she wasn't there
Well she was a beauty
And I thought to myself
What a fool he must be
To want someone else
Well I watched and I waited
'till the time was just right
And I walked away with
The steal of the night
Like a thief I slipped in
To take what I could
Now I should feel guilty
But I just feel good
And while he two-timed and he two-stepped
We slipped out of sight
And I walked away with
The steal of the night
Yeah, I walked away with the steal of the night
By looking at them
That she was the woman
That walked in with him
He danced every dance
While she watched from her chair
And he carried on
Like she wasn't there
Well she was a beauty
And I thought to myself
What a fool he must be
To want someone else
Well I watched and I waited
'till the time was just right
And I walked away with
The steal of the night
Like a thief I slipped in
To take what I could
Now I should feel guilty
But I just feel good
And while he two-timed and he two-stepped
We slipped out of sight
And I walked away with
The steal of the night
Yeah, I walked away with the steal of the night
