| You’ve been dancing all night long
 | 
| With so many different guys
 | 
| I’ve waited patiently for you to notice me
 | 
| But I never caught your eye
 | 
| Make some room, 'cause I’m coming through
 | 
| The feeling’s getting stronger
 | 
| I’m not waiting any longer
 | 
| For you, I can’t lose
 | 
| (I'm takin' love, takin' love into my own hands)
 | 
| Don’t you try to stop me
 | 
| (I'm takin' love, takin' love into my own hands)
 | 
| That’s right
 | 
| I wanna spin you around and around
 | 
| But you never give me the floor
 | 
| I’m takin' the lead, I got this need
 | 
| To give you what you’re askin' for
 | 
| Let the music speak, let our bodies meet
 | 
| And when the dance is over
 | 
| You’ll want no one else to hold you but me
 | 
| Wait and see
 | 
| (I'm takin' love, takin' love into my own hands)
 | 
| Don’t you try to stop me
 | 
| (I'm takin' love, takin' love into my own hands)
 | 
| That’s right
 | 
| I’m takin' love into my own hands, ooh, aha
 | 
| I’m takin' love into my own hands
 | 
| Why don’t you watch me
 | 
| I’m takin' love into my own hands
 | 
| I, I, I’m takin' love into my own hands
 | 
| Watch me, watch me, watch me… watch me!
 | 
| Watch me
 | 
| (I'm takin' love, takin' love into my own hands)
 | 
| Don’t you try to stop me
 | 
| (I'm takin' love, takin' love into my own hands)
 | 
| You want me, what you got me
 | 
| (Oh, love, I’m taking in my own hands)
 | 
| That’s right
 | 
| (I'm takin' love, takin' love into my own hands) |
