Let The Music Play

I've been out here walking and talking by myself
For about four hours now
Love is really a hurtin' thing
"Hey man, what's happening?"
"Hey brother, what's going on? Alright?"
He's got his woman over there
But mine's at home

What time is it?
Damn, almost 12.45
I think I'm gonna walk up here and see what's goin' on
Up here at this discotheque
There's always something goin' on in there
What becomes of the broken hearted

Oh baby
Oh this looks like the place
Everybody's goin' in
Step on up here

One ticket please
Lord almost everybody's here
"Hey what's goin' on man? It's okay?" "She's at home"
"Yeah, she's at home, yeah, she's at home"

Let the music play
I just wanna dance the night away
Here, right here, right here is where I'm gonna stay
All night long

Let the music play on
Just until I feel this misery is gone
Movin', kickin', groovin', keep the music strong
On and on and on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on and on...

I'm out here dancin' and still
I can't erase the things I feel
The tender love we used to share
See, it's like it's no longer there
I've, I've got to hide what's killin' me inside

Let the music play
I just want to dance the night away
Here, right here, right here is where I'm gonna stay
All night long

Let the music play on
Just until I feel this misery is gone
Ah, movin', kickin', groovin', keep the music strong
Let it play on and on
Let it play on and on, and on, and on and on and on...

I think I'm gonna be alright, ha ha ha
If I can make it through the night, oh Lord
I'll just pretend she's here with me
I'll close my eyes, her face I'll see (won't somebody help me?)
I know it's make believe, but it's the only hope for me

Let the music play
I just want to dance the night away
Here, right here, right here is where I'm gonna stay
All night long

Let the music play on
Just until I feel this misery is gone
Ah, movin', kickin', groovin', keep the music strong
Let it play

Maybe you oughta see me now
And then you'd know that it's only you that I love
I'm not out here looking for a one night affair
Think it's just that I'm... that I'm so hurt inside
But all I wanna do is just dance, dance, dance

Let the music play
I just want to dance the night away
Here, right here, right here is where I'm gonna stay
All night long

Let the music play on
Just until I feel this misery is gone
Movin', kickin', groovin', keep the music strong
Let it play on

Let it play on
Let it play on
Please let it play on
Let it play on
