Last Dance Lyrics

Last dance
Last dance for love
Yes, it's my last change
For romance tonight

I need you, by me,
Beside me, to guide me,
To hold me, to scold me,
'cause when I'm bad
I'm so, so bad

So let's dance, the last dance
Let’s dance, the last dance
Let’s dance, this last dance tonight

Last dance, last dance for love
Yes, it's my last change
For romance tonight

Oh, I need you, by me,
Beside me, to guide me,
To hold me, to scold me,
'cause when I'm bad
I'm so, so bad

So let's dance, the last dance
Let’s dance, the last dance
Let’s dance, this last dance tonight

Yeah, will you be my Mr. Right?
Can you fill my appetite
I can't be sure
That you're the one for me
But all that I ask
Is that you dance with me
Dance with me, dance with me, yeah

Oh I need you, by me,
Beside me, to guide me,
To hold me, to scold me,
Cause when I'm bad
I'm so, so bad

So let's dance, this last dance
Let's dance, this last dance
Let's dance, this last dance tonight

Oh I need you, by me,
To beside, to guide me,
To hold me, to scold me,
Cause when I'm bad
I'm so, so bad

So, come on baby, dance that dance
Come on baby, dance that dance
Come on baby, let's dance tonight...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The subject has passed up chances for love before, but this time she's determined not to let it happen this time around. She's saying she needs someone for her through good and bad.

"All I ask is that you dance with me" She's asking him to give her a chance.

This is the "Closing Time" song of all those decades ago. She'll dance with whomever is willing and she's hoping he'll go home with her and fill her appetite. Seriously, it's the disco version of "Closing Time" by Third Eye Blind.
