[Verse 1]
E B7
When she asked me to dance I said, "No no I have two left feet."
E
And the she took my hand and whispered a song so sweet
A E C#m
And she said, "Hold me as close as you can 'til my bodies on fire."
E B7 E B7 E B7
It's just a vertical expression of horizontal desire.
[Verse 2]
E B7
So we moved like water bein' poured over polished steel
E
And I really can't translate the way she made me feel
A E C#m
And the music played on and the mercury just went higher
E B7 E B7 E B7
It's just a vertical expression of horizontal desire.
[Bridge]
A E
We did the samba, the mambo , the tango, the two-step while we romanced
A B B7
And when the music got fast we just held to each other and slow danced.
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
E B7
I took nothing for granted but I wished I could stay all night
E
And as we walked in to her place she reached out to dim the light
A E C#m
She said, "Dance with me darlin' 'til the moon and the stars retire."
E B7 E B7
It's just a vertical expression of horizontal desire.
E B7 E
It's just a vertical expression of horizontal desire.
