Donny Hathaway
After the Dance is Done
[Verse 1]
After the dance is done
And you've been dancing with everyone
I finally got a chance to express myself
To let you know for me there is no one else
Ooh baby, after the dance is through
And there is no one but me and you
I'll take you in my arms and I'll show you how
I love you so
Oh-oh, I love you so

[Verse 2]
Ooh, after the dance is done
And you've been kissing on everyone
All my anger I tried to hide
But I've got some love inside
Only you can control my heart
Telling me where to stop and start
If I've been acting like a fool
It's all because I, I love you, girl
I love you

[Bridge]
Tell me, is it real
The feeling that I feel
Or is it just a figmentation of my mind
I know it must be true
'Cause every time I look at you
I wanna make sweet love to you
Girl, you're so fine
It's me, oh
Oh
Can I go with you? I'm tired of dancing
Let's make tonight our night
I'm tired of dancing
[Verse 3]
After the dance is done
And everybody is on the run
I wanna lay on down with you
And do the things that only lovers do
Baby, after the dance is over
Like I wished upon a clover
All my hopes and dreams came true
I'm here with you, you
You, you, yeah
I'm here with you, ooh

[Outro]
And after the dance is done
Be my baby after the dance is done
I love you, girl, after the dance is done
You'll be my baby after the dance is done
And oh, oh-oh girl, I love you
Love me, girl, I love you
Oh, oh-oh girl, I love you
Yeah
