Look over here there's a girl
I've never seen her before
Her eyes are lookin' straight at you
Across the crowded dance floor
Ooh, ooh, she's smilin'
What a beautiful sight
Oh, I got a funny feelin'
She's gonna dance with you tonight
She could be the perfect partner
She can take it in her stride
She won't try to lead or follow
Perfect partner by your side
Ooh, you got to take a chance
You got to let somebody move you
It can happen at a dance
If there's a rhythm you can groove to
Ooh, here she comes y'all
She's comin' straight to me
She's gonna ask me if I want to dance
I'll just have to wait and see
She could be the perfect partner
She can take it in her stride
She won't have to lead or follow
Perfect partner by my side
The worse thing that can happen is
She steps on your toes
But 'til you take that first step with her
How will you know, know, know?
That she could be the perfect partner
She can take it in her stride
She won't have to lead or follow
Perfect partner by my side
She could be the perfect partner
(She could be the perfect partner)
She can take it in her stride
(She can take it in her stride)
She won't have to lead or follow
(She won't have to lead or follow)
Perfect partner by my side
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
