Lyrics

She walked up and asked him for this dance
But he refused
He was a fool
To miss this offer of romance
He thought it shrewd to play it cool
He was cold because he knew no other way
But she was warm and knew just what to say

If someone holds their hand out to you
My advice is don't continue
With what you're doing come what may
It's rude and inconsiderate to act like such an idiot
When all they want to do is play

So she gave him one more chance
And he knew not to refuse
After all it's just a dance
And he was moved she was his muse
And he was warm because she led the way
And she was warm and knew just what to say

If someone holds their hand out to you
My advice is don't continue
With what you're doing come what may
It's rude and inconsiderate to act like such an idiot
When all they want to do is play

The music played they danced their dance
And through it all
She held his hand
It was just a silly dance
Even a fool could understand
If you let her lead the way
You'll find it's warm inside a warm embrace
