Lyrics

She lived alone, he was very lonely, they met at her apartment at eight.

Horizontal Dancing, underneath the covers,
Horizontal Dancing, lovin' in the night.
Horizontal Dancing, friends becoming lovers,
Horizontal Dancing, movin' left and right.

She called a cab, it was very late, and he was almost finished for the night.
He opened the door, she smiled at him with her eyes,
And he surrendered without a fight.
It's been this way since the stars began to shine,
You show me yours, girl, and I'll show you mine! And let's go

Horizontal Dancing, underneath the covers,
Horizontal Dancing, lovin' in the night.
Horizontal Dancing, friends becoming lovers,
Horizontal Dancing, movin' left and right.

And you look so lovely, my dear, in this candlelight.
And that dress makes you so alluring.
Will you come to my humble abode?
I have a condo, just down the road.
(solo)
Let's go Horizontal Dancing, underneath the covers,
Horizontal Dancing, lovin' in the night.
Horizontal Dancing, friends becoming lovers,
Horizontal Dancing, movin' left and right.
