I can whistle while i work
but it doesn't make it better
I can live a lonely winter
and pretend i'm all right
Or let my true side show
for the world to see
Cause if they buy into gimmicks
they don't know the real me
Lately i've been watching you

Girl, i love the way you move
you dance with the boys, then
leave the love stuck high
On the dance floor they all
fight for your attention
While i'm plotting a scheme
to steal the competition, girl
You swallowed up my pride
but honey you're worth the fight
Oh, honey you're worth the fight

Chorus:
Let tonight be the night
the last dance will win you over
On the final song you'll get
swept off your feet
The crow circles where you stand,
and they'll watch as i take your hand
Let tonight be the night that
you save the last dance for me

A heavy-hitter a go-getter is how
i gotta deliver as a steadfast contender
But i'm weak in the knees
'Cause you're a real girl in a dream girl's body
trailed by boys who keep up like paparazzi
And you, you don't even know who
I am, but i'm playing my cards to win
Honey, i'm playing my cards to win

Chorus:
