lyrics

Hey you, where’d the sparkle in your eyes go?
Rough day, little something gotcha ya feeling low
Rain clouds messing up your rainbow
All the colors start to run, and
You’re not having any fun but

We’ve got this happy groove
You’re body loves to move
You could be dancing
The blues can get you down
Just turn that beat around
You could be, you could be, yeah you could be, you could be dancing

This world has a melody it loves to sing
In the breeze in the way the leaves are rustling,
Or the hustle and the bustle on a busy street
If you listen there’s a song
You can’t help but hum along cuz

We’ve got this happy groove
You’re body loves to move
You could be dancing
The blues can get you down
Just turn that beat around
You could be, you could be, yeah you could be, you could be dancing

It’s the faucet, dripping dripping out a tiny tune. It’s the squeaky rhythm living in your tennis shoes. It’s the chhchhh when you brush your teeth, it’s the thumping of my heart when you look at me

(You could be dancing, you could dancing yeah)

We’ve got this happy groove
You’re body loves to move
You could be dancing
The blues can get you down
Just turn that beat around
You could be, you could be, yeah you could be dancing

It’s in the shaking of the Laundromat washing machine, its the rice inside the jar that’s like a tambourine. It’s the clanking of the spoon inside your cereal bowl, as your happy crunching munching on your Cheerios.
(you could be dancing, you could be dancing yeah)

We’ve got this happy groove
You’re body loves to move
You could be dancing
The blues can get you down
Just turn that beat around
And you could be, you could be, yeah you could be dancing
