[Verse 1: Peabo Bryson, Roberta Flack, Both]
I was feelin' lonely and I was new in town
I was just lookin' for a friend
When the music started and you stepped out of the crowd
My heart just opened up and let you in
[Chorus: Peabo Bryson, Roberta Flack, Both]
I just came here to dance
Never knew I'd find a lover
I just came here to dance
But now I can't recover
I was caught up in the music
Can't deny the magic in your eyes
I wasn't tryin' to find romance
I just came here to dance
[Verse 2: Peabo Bryson, Roberta Flack, Both]
I may be talkin' crazy, maybe I'm insane
To lose my heart so easily
But when we started dancin' and I held you in my arms
I'll never know just what came over me
[Chorus: Peabo Bryson, Roberta Flack, Both]
I just came here to dance
Never knew I'd find a lover
I just came here to dance
But now I can't recover
I was caught up in the music
Can't deny the magic in your eyes
I wasn't tryin' to find romance
I just came here to dance
[Bridge: Peabo Bryson, Roberta Flack, Both]
Oh, it felt so right, holdin' you so tight
Spinning round and round
When the night was through, it was me and you
And the new love we have found
Ooh ooh ooh, oh oh
(I just came here to dance, ooh ooh)
(I just came here to dance)
[Outro: Roberta Flack, Peabo Bryson, Both]
I was caught up in the music
Can't deny the magic in your eyes
I wasn't tryin' to find romance
I just came here to dance
I just came here to dance
You know I did, you know I did, I
I wasn't tryin' to find romance
I just came here to dance
(Just came here)
You know I did, you know I did, I
(Did I say)
I just came here to dance
(Just came here)
You know I didn't know, did I
(Did I say)
I wasn't tryin' to find romance
(I wasn't tryin' to find romance)
I just came here to dance
I was feelin' lonely and I was new in town
I was just lookin' for a friend
When the music started and you stepped out of the crowd
My heart just opened up and let you in
[Chorus: Peabo Bryson, Roberta Flack, Both]
I just came here to dance
Never knew I'd find a lover
I just came here to dance
But now I can't recover
I was caught up in the music
Can't deny the magic in your eyes
I wasn't tryin' to find romance
I just came here to dance
[Verse 2: Peabo Bryson, Roberta Flack, Both]
I may be talkin' crazy, maybe I'm insane
To lose my heart so easily
But when we started dancin' and I held you in my arms
I'll never know just what came over me
[Chorus: Peabo Bryson, Roberta Flack, Both]
I just came here to dance
Never knew I'd find a lover
I just came here to dance
But now I can't recover
I was caught up in the music
Can't deny the magic in your eyes
I wasn't tryin' to find romance
I just came here to dance

I just came here to dance
You know I did, you know I did, I

You know I did, you know I did, I
