[Verse 1] My heels tap the tile At the corner café I take my seat like a queen At the end of the day A trumpet man grins From the booth by the door I fold up my worries And leave them on the floor The waiter says, “Miss, You’re glowing tonight” I laugh with my eyes And I straighten my light [Pre-Chorus] The moon got dressed up In a silver suit The band starts smiling And the whole room moves [Chorus] Dance me through the city Take me where the brass can shine Dance me through the city Let the midnight suit me fine Cherry in the alley Swinging where the lanterns sway Dance me through the city And don’t let the night fade away [Verse 2] A saxophone curls Like smoke in the air It kisses the rafters Then lands in my hair I step past the laughter Past forks and glass The couple by the window Make room as I pass The pavement outside Has a polished blue gleam And every old storefront Looks better than a dream [Pre-Chorus] The moon got dressed up In a silver suit The band starts smiling And the whole room moves [Chorus] Dance me through the city Take me where the brass can shine Dance me through the city Let the midnight suit me fine Cherry in the alley Swinging where the lanterns sway Dance me through the city And don’t let the night fade away [Bridge] I don’t need a cab I don’t need a plan Just a little backbeat And a confident hand Let the skyline lean in Let the sirens hum I was made for motion And here I come [Chorus] Dance me through the city Take me where the brass can shine Dance me through the city Let the midnight suit me fine Cherry in the alley Swinging where the lanterns sway Dance me through the city And don’t let the night fade away [Outro] Mm-mm, keep it swinging Mm-mm, keep it sweet Cherry in the alley And the whole town on my feet
