Help me find out the name of this song!?!
Question: I was at the gym the other day and heard this song on our local JackFM station (meaning that it was a chart topper at some point). It was hard to make out the lyrics, but the style is definitely softer 80s electronic pop. I believe one of the lines in the chorus is "And take your girl by the wrist" and it rhymes with a line that ends in "fist". I think the chorus says something like "And we will dance... all... night / And we will dance... all... day". The "..." are there because he kind of pauses between words. I really wish I knew more. Any information you have would be most appreciated as this song is stuck in my head... at least the parts I remember.

I think it is called "Hold Me Now" and I think it's on the Wedding Singer soundtrack, at least it was in the movie.

Dave is correct. It is Dance Hall Days from Wang Chung.
Great tune!
