I Wanna Move With You

Rick Nelson · The Last Time Around 1970 - 1982 [2010]

(B. Knght)



Well I can see your reflection in the flickerin' light

Girl you look like a vision dancin' out of the night

With your hole body swayin' to the sound of the beat

And your hair softly swirlin' while you hustle your feet.



You're the finest lookin' thing I ever knew

I wanna move with you.



Now when you dance to the music there's a look in your eyes

That's a part of the devil in an angels disguise

When you do what you're doin' girl, you sure get to me

'Cause I stop and wonder how your sweet love would be.



You're the finest lookin' thing I ever knew

I wanna move with you.



I can hear the music all around us

And I can feel you comin' close to me

I can see the people all around us

But baby you're the only one that I can see.



Well I could go on forever bein' right by your side

'Cause you know how to move me and I'm so satisfied

If there was no tomorrow I could make it alright

If you'd say you love me and you'd be mine.



You're the finest lookin' thing I ever knew

I wanna move with you.



Yes I do, I wanna move, keep on movin'

I wanna move, keep on movin' on...
