How do you describe a feeling?
I've only ever dreamt of this

DJ's spinning up my favorite song,
Hurry up and get a grove on
Light fantastic and it won't be long,
Don't let the moment slip away

'Cause you and I could find a pleasure, no one else has ever known
Feels like it is now or never, don't want to be alone

[Chorus]
How does it feel in my arms?
How does it feel in my arms?
Do you want it?
Do you need it?
Can you feel it?
Tell me
How does it feel in my arms?

Got a feeling this is something strong
All I wanna do is move on
No more wondering where I belong
So never go away

'Cause you and I are guilty pleasure, no one else has ever known
Feels like it is now or never, don't want to be alone

[Chorus]
How does it feel in my arms?
How does it feel in my arms?
Do you want it?
Do you need it?
Can you feel it?
Tell me
How does it feel in my arms?

Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
Oh yeah, yeah

Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
Oh yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
I'm listening
How does it feel in my arms?
(How does it feel in my arms?)
How does it feel in my arms?
Yeah, yeah
Do you want it?
Do you need it?
Can you feel it?
Tell me
How does it feel in my arms?
