Dua Lipa menulis "Dance The Night" bekerja sama dengan penulis lagu Norwegia Caroline Ailin, dan dengan Mark Ronson dan Andrew Wyatt, yang keduanya menggubah musik untuk film tersebut.
Gubahan musik Wyatt dan Ronson juga mendapat sentuhan dari duo produser Prancis Picard Brothers dalam produksi lagu, sehingga sukses menggabungkan nuansa pop dan disko yang enerjik serta lirik penuh makna tentang menyembunyikan kesedihan di balik senyum.
Lirik lagu itu bercerita tentang seseorang yang selalu tampak sempurna secara eksternal, meskipun sebenarnya sedang bersedih.
"Dance the Night" dinominasikan untuk beberapa kategori penghargaan Grammy ke-66, termasuk "Song of the Year" dan "Best Song Written for Visual Media", tapi tidak menang.

Lirik lagu "Dance The Night" sebagai berikut:
Baby you can Find me under the lights
Diamonds under my eyes
Turn the rhythm up
Don’t you wanna just
Come along for the ride
Oh my outfit so tight
You can see my heart beat tonight
I can take the heat
Baby best believe
That’s the moment I shine
Cuz every romance
Shakes and it bends
Don’t give a damn
When the nights here
I don’t do tears
Baby no chance
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
My heart could be burning but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
I’ll still keep the party running not one hair out of place
Lately I’ve been
Moving close to the edge
Still be looking my best
I stay on the beat
You can count on me
I ain’t missing no steps
Cuz every romance
Shakes and it bends
Don’t give a damn
When the nights here
I don’t do tears
Baby no chance
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
My heart could be burning but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
I’ll still keep the party running not one hair out of place
When my heart breaks
You’ll never see it, never see it
When my world shakes
I feel alive, I feel alive
I don’t play safe
Don’t you know about me
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance
Even when the tears are flowing
They’re diamonds on my face
I’ll still keep the party going not one hair out of place
Even when the tears are flowing
They’re diamonds on my face
I’ll still keep the party going not one hair out of place
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
My heart could be burning but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
I’ll still keep the party running not one hair out of place
When my heart breaks
You’ll never see it, never see it
When my world shakes
I feel alive, I feel alive
I don’t play safe
Don’t you know about me
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance
Dance the night
