Dancing

Who could believe I feel

All of the things I'm feeling.

This emotional glow

I've imagined though

I couldn't place the time or face.

Now yours is the face I see.

Shining in expectation

Of more parties, more lights

And a thousand more nights of dancing!

I can hardly believe we were dancing on the hill.

Happy to be dancing together until

Our hearts stood still.

I'm not afraid of time

Now that I have these memories.

And I'll always recall

That the best thing of all was dancing

With my hair in the breeze

I was free of every care.

Happy to be lifted and held in midair

And laughing there.

Who could not feel the joy

Waltzing in every moment.

Every color and sound

On this merry-go-round.

I never knew I'd felt so few

'Til I let myself chance

This evening of dancing with you.
