"Dance The Night" lyrics

"Dance The Night"
(from "Barbie" soundtrack)

Baby, you can find me under the lights
Diamonds under my eyes
Turn the rhythm up, don't you wanna just
Come along for the ride?
Ooh, my outfit so tight
You can see my heartbeat tonight
I can take the heat, baby, best believe
That's the moment I shine

'Cause every romance shakes and it bends
Don't give a damn
When the night's here, I don't do tears
Baby, no chance

I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

Watch me dance, dance the night away
My heart could be burnin', but you won't see it on my face
Watch me dance, dance the night away (Uh-huh)
I'll still keep the party runnin', not one hair out of place

Lately, I been movin' close to the edge
Still be lookin' my best
I stay on the beat, you can count on me
I ain't missin' no steps

'Cause every romance shakes and it bends
Don't give a damn
When the night's here, I don't do tears
Baby, no chance

I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

Watch me dance, dance the night away
My heart could be burnin', but you won't see it on my face
Watch me dance, dance the night away (Uh-huh)
I'll still keep the party runnin', not one hair out of place

When my heart breaks (They never see it, never see it)
When my world shakes (I feel alive, I feel alive)
I don't play safe (Ooh), don't you know about me? (Uh-huh)
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

Even when the tears are flowin', they're diamonds on my face
I'll still keep the party goin', not one hair out of place (Yes, I can)
Even when the tears are flowin', they're diamonds on my face (Yes, I can, yes, I can)
I'll still keep the party goin', not one hair out of place

Watch me dance, dance the night away (Uh-huh)
My heart could be burnin', but you won't see it on my face
Watch me dance (Dance), dance the night away (Uh-huh)
I still keep the party runnin', not one hair out of place

When my heart breaks (They never see it, never see it)
When my world shakes (I feel alive, I feel alive)
I don't play safe, don't you know about me? (Uh-huh)
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

Dance the night

"Dance The Night" is the lead single for the soundtrack to the film "Barbie" (2023) where Dua Lipa plays a role of Mermaid Barbie. The song was released on the 25th of May, 2023. Greta Gerwig, the film's director, makes a cameo appearance in the music video for this track.
Talking in an interview with Dazed magazine, Dua Lipa admitted that Greta Gerwig's involvement in the film prompted her to take part in it. Lipa told about Gerwig's films, "[They] never really feel like the male gaze. They have very interesting female protagonists." Lipa briefly said about the film, "Barbie, the doll, has this idea of what perfection should be. The film–and there's a lot of diversity in the cast–is touching exactly on the buttons that maybe it presses, and shows a different story."
Dua Lipa and Caroline Ailin wrote this song with its producers Andrew Wyatt and Mark Ronson. Lipa announced its release on Instagram on the 22nd of May, 2023: she posted a short video where she recreated a film's scene with Margot Robbie's arched foot from the second "Barbie" teaser trailer. A snippet of the song played in background.
