Can I Have This Dance (SSBB)

"Can I Have This Dance?" is one of the singles from High School Musical 3 and the fourth song heard in the movie and on the soundtrack. The song is sung in the movie by Troy Bolton & Gabriella Montez.

This song takes place in the rooftop garden from the first movie. In the movie, the song explains that Troy & Gabriella are trying to spend each moment together before they graduate. Soon after the dance and twirl around the garden, the sprinklers turn on and they both spin around while they get soaking wet. This song is a Hollywood-inspired musical number.

The 2nd time this song is heard is when Troy drives all the way to Stanford thus missing the prom just to see Gabriella "(Can I Have This Dance? (Reprise)". He says he isn't ready to say goodbye just yet so the 2 of them have their own prom at Stanford. They dance around the university and end it with a kiss. This convinces Gabriella to return to East High.

Lyrics
Gabriella:

Take me hand

Take a breath

Pull me close

And take one step

Keep your eyes

Locked on mine

And let the music

Be your guide

Troy:

Won't you promise...

Gabriella:

Now won't you promise me

That you'll never forget

Troy:

We'll keep dancing

Gabriella:

To keep dancing

Both:

Wherever we go next

It's like catching lightning

The chances of finding

Someone like you

It's one in a million

The chances of feeling

The way we do

And with every

Step together

We just keep on

Getting better

Gabriella:

So can I have this dance?

Troy:

Can I have this dance?

Both:

Can I have this dance?

Gabriella:

Ohh

No mountain's too high

And no

Both:

Ocean's too wide

'Cause together or not

Our dance won't stop

Gabriella:

Let it rain

Both:

Let it pour

What we have

Is worth fighting for

You know I believe

That we were meant to be

Gabriella: Yeah

Both:

It's like catching lightning

The chances of finding

Someone like you

Gabriella:

Like you

Both:

It's one in a million

The chances of feeling

The way we do

And with every

Step together

We just keep on

Getting better

Gabriella:

So can I have this dance?

Troy:

Can I have this dance?

Both:

Can I have this dance?

Gabriella:

Can I have

Both:daniel&daniel

This dance?

Can I have this dance?
