"Dance With A Stranger" lyrics - LAKE STREET DIVE

[Intro:]
Left, right, front, side
Find somebody new
And then take them by the hand
And say you understand

Look around the room
Find someone's eyes that are new to you
Might be a child's or a grandfather's
Anyone will do
Go say, "Hello, how do you do?"
Listen to their answer, commiserate
Say, "I feel that way sometimes too"
And, "Would you like to dance?"
And if they say, "No," that's okay
But if they say, "Yes," take their hand
Lead them out on the dance floor
Listen to the music play
Open up your whole heart

[Chorus:]
And dance, dance with a stranger
'Til they're not a stranger anymore
You just dance, dance with a stranger
'Til they're not a stranger, not a stranger anymore

[Post-Chorus:]
Left, right, front, side
Find somebody new
And then take them by the hand
And say you understand

Look around the room
There are so many people here like you
People who came here to be together
And dance it all away
Who wanna be good and love one another
And have big dreams or hard times, and like to dance
Look around the room
Find somebody you've never seen before
And lead them out to the dance floor

[Chorus:]
And dance, dance with a stranger
'Til they're not a stranger anymore
You just dance, dance with a stranger
'Til they're not a stranger, not a stranger anymore

[Interlude:]
Ooh-ooh-ooh

[Bridge:]
(Left, right, front, side)
(Find somebody new)
(And then take them by the hand)
(And say you understand)

[Chorus:]
Oh-oh-oh, dance, dance with a stranger
'Til they're not a stranger anymore
You just dance, dance with a stranger
'Til they're not a stranger, not a stranger anymore

[Outro:]
Left, right, front, side
Find somebody new (Ooh, yeah)
And then take them by the hand (Oh-oh-oh, yeah)
And say you understand
Oh, left, right, front, side (Mm-mm)
Find somebody new
And then take them by the hand (Not a stranger)
And say you understand
Left, right, front, side
Find somebody new
And then take them by the hand
And say you understand
