[Intro]
See you from across the room (See you from across the room)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Oh-oh-oh

[Verse 1]
It's Friday night and I'm going to a party with my man, to dance
As soon as we get in, he is lost with his friends
And I'm there, in a trance

[Pre-Chorus]
I can tell that someone's looking at me
And I didn't come here by myself
But he left me here at someone else's feet
So it must mean he didn't care
I'm goin' on

[Chorus]
See you from across the room (Like you wanna know me, boy)
If you wanna make a move (Meet me on the dance floor)
Though I'm here with someone else (He's not what I'm looking for)
Instead I've seen him 'cross the room (Meet me on the dance floor)

[Verse 2]
As the night goes on, each dance makes me wonder
What is on your mind
More than a dance, as you pull up to me
And it feels, alright

[Pre-Chorus]
I can tell that someone's looking at me (Oh-oh)
And I didn't come here by myself
But he left me here at someone else's feet
So it must mean he didn't care
I'm goin' on

[Chorus]
See you from across the room (Like you wanna know me, boy)
If you wanna make a move (Meet me on the dance floor)
Though I'm here with someone else (He's not what I'm looking for)
Instead I've seen him 'cross the room (Meet me on the dance floor)
See you from across the room (Like you wanna know me, boy)
If you wanna make a move (Then meet me on the dance floor)
Though I'm here with someone else (He's not what I'm looking for)
Instead I've seen him 'cross the room (Meet me on the dance floor)

[Bridge]
Let me know what you wanna do (Let me know)
Can't you tell that I'm missing you? (You)
Let me know that you're right on time
'Cause I'm lookin' for someone else tonight

[Chorus]
See you from across the room (Like you wanna know me, boy)
If you wanna make a move (Meet me on the dance floor)
Though I'm here with someone else (He's not what I'm looking for)
Instead I've seen him 'cross the room (Meet me on the dance floor)
See you from across the room (Oh, oh, oh)
If you wanna make a move (Then meet me on the dance floor)
Though I'm here with someone else (He's not what I'm looking for)
Instead I've seen him 'cross the room (Meet me on the dance floor)

[Outro]
Meet me on the dance floor, baby
Meet me on the dance floor, baby
Meet me on the dance floor, baby
Meet me on the dance floor, baby
