Lyrics
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Baby, when you’re holdin’ me
Somehow you seem to set me free
And when I dance with you, romance with you
Is all I sing
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
I’ve spent so many nights
Just picking fights within myself
Until you came to me
And held me like nobody else
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Tell me ’bout the way you like it
Anything you want is right
You and I are close together
Your lovin’ gets me feeling better
I wanna dance all
(Oh) I wanna dance all
I wanna dance all night (all night)
I wanna dance all
I wanna dance all
I wanna dance all night
I wanna dance all (all night)
I wanna dance all (all night)
I wanna dance all night
Every time you’re holdin’ me (every time)
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love what you feel
‘Cause I love what you do to me
Do you love…
