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 struck 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 all my pride, but honey you're worth the fight Oh honey, you're worth the fight Let tonight be the night that the last dance will win you over On the final song you'll get swept off your feet The crowd 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 go-getter is how I gotta deliver as a steadfast contender But I'm weak in the knees Cause you're a real life 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
