and shall we go dancing?

and shall we go dancing,

and turn on the floor?

to speak only nothing

but love and of lore?

for i know nothing now

of what is not here

nor the sound of your name

before you were near.

it's a pure simple way

to love what is mine,

if it not for your hand

my heart would resign.

but fortune has found me

and shown me your face,

with a moment of truth

and wonderful grace.

wrapped tight in your eyes,

i journey ahead

to a time not now past

and hist'ry unread.

until then we must wait

to live but as one,

though we happily pass

this soon to be done.

so i ask once again

to slip from your shoes

and let steal me your kiss

as our dance renews.
