My wish is simple
To love and be loved
When I danced with you
It was like a new dawn
I thought love was simple
When you find your match
But you can still be defeated
If your timing doesn’t align
Oh, I don’t understand
How you always manage
To be
One step forward, two steps back
Every step feels so heavy
If you can’t take it seriously
Just tumble away from me
Advance, retreat
I can’t seem to break away
Advance, retreat
I’m tired of this cha cha
Cha cha with you
The heartbeat changes rhythm
Sometimes fast, sometimes slow
I can’t keep up with the music
That we’re dancing to
I thought love would be happy
When you find your partner
A possibility I never considered
Was that I was the only one who felt it
Oh, I don’t understand
How you always manage
To be
One step forward, two steps back
Every step feels so heavy
If you can’t take it seriously
Just tumble away from me
Advance, retreat
I can’t seem to break away
Advance, retreat
I’m tired of this cha cha
Cha cha with you
One, two, three, four—
I don’t want to play anymore
Five, six, seven, eight—
If you regret it, babe, it’s too late
Side step to the left
Saying goodbye even though it hurts
Side step to the right
This is my last cha cha, bye-bye
One, two, three, four—
I don’t want to play anymore
Five, six, seven, eight—
If you regret it, babe, it’s too late
Side step to the left
Saying goodbye even though it hurts
Side step to the right
This is my last cha cha, bye-bye
One step forward, two steps back (Alright)
Every step feels so heavy (Ayy, ayy)
If you can’t take it seriously (Take it seriously)
Just tumble away from me (Go away, go away)
Advance, retreat
I can’t seem to break away (Advance, retreat)
Advance, retreat
I’m tired of this cha cha
Cha cha with you
