Boy, you drive me crazy
You sure got a lot of nerve
The way you take your sweet time
All around me like your work of art
Who said you know me so good
You’re a dangerous angel
Should have seen right from the start
Still I’d never change you
Anyway
Chorus:
You’ve got me dancin’ on the smooth edge (2x)
Hearts on fire
Filled with desire
And I’m waiting for the words you say
On the smooth edge (2x)
So funny how the night just slips on by
In a long slow dance with you
Crazy how you keep on leading me boy
To a place beyond taboo
You’re a cool persuader
Hey don’t you, don’t you, don’t you, have no shame
Still I’m gonna take you
Anyway
Chorus:
You’ve got me dancin’ on the smooth edge (2x)
Hearts on fire
Filled with desire
And I’m reaching for your every move
Dancin’ on the smooth edge
On the smooth edge
Smooth edge, smooth edge
Adlibs:
Oh, oh you’re an angel, yes you are
Chorus:
You’ve got me dancin’ on the smooth edge (2x)
Hearts on fire
Filled with desire
And I’m deeper, deeper in love with you
Dancin’ on the smooth edge
