Lyrics
She was taken when I took her
She was already in a relationship when I pursued her
She's a bookworm and a looker
She is both intellectual and attractive
She liked the way I rolled
She enjoyed my carefree attitude or behavior
I liked the way she shook it
I appreciated her dancing skills
She's a one of a kind woman, one of a kind woman
Emphasis on her uniqueness and special qualities
She was taken when I took her
Reiteration of her being in a relationship when I pursued her
She's a bookworm and a looker
Reiteration of her intellectual and attractive qualities
She liked the way I rolled
Reiteration of her enjoyment of my carefree attitude or behavior
I liked the way she shook it
Reiteration of my appreciation for her dancing skills
The way she shook it
Emphasis on the captivating nature of her dance
She's a one of a kind woman, one of a kind woman
Reiteration of her unique and special qualities
She's a one of a kind woman, one of a kind woman
-And I fell so far
Expressing a deep emotional involvement
Over myself into who you are
Falling deeply for her true self
Fell so fast
Falling rapidly in love
Wishin' time would slow down
Expressing a desire for time to slow down
Make this dance last
Expressing a wish to prolong the dance and the moment
Wishin' time would slow down
Reiteration of the desire for time to slow down
Make this dance last
Reiteration of the wish to make the dance last
And then she let me
Describing a more intimate moment
Squeeze her thigh when
Highlighting physical closeness and touch
On the backseat of the bus
Specific location where the intimate moment occurred
When we were listening
Recalling a shared experience of listening to music
There was friction
Describing a sense of tension or excitement
Two hearts one beat to the song
Symbolizing unity and connection in the relationship
She's my type of woman, my type of woman
Emphasizing compatibility with her
She's my type of woman, my type of woman
Reiteration of compatibility with her
And I fell so far
Repetition of the emotional involvement and falling
Over myself into who you are
Reiteration of falling deeply for her true self
Fell so fast
Repetition of falling rapidly in love
Wishin' time would slow down
Repetition of the desire for time to slow down
Make this dance last
Repetition of the wish to prolong the dance and the moment
Wishin' time would slow down
Repetition of the desire for time to slow down
Make this dance last
Repetition of the wish to make the dance last
