Shall we dance?

For most the melody and the beat

Are a chance to simply move their feet.

For children whose hearts feel deep and wide

Every tune’s an ocean’s pull at tide.

For the dancer trained with precision

Planned steps come without decision.

For you and me the dance is our life

Shall we tango as man and wife?

There’s not a greater joy than to move

This song played only for me and you.

Our waltz a mix of follow and lead

Taking turns to star, to lift, to bleed.

Until we’re dancing on air above

I’ll be your eternal partner, my love.
