and as the one, two, three begins to play
you and me, hand in hand begin to sway
your dress dances with my broken heart
and my shadow becomes your work of art
would you meet me in the dark without the stars above
and would you believe me if I told you that I was in love?
is this lake shallow enough for us to stand?
and if I asked you to dance, would you take my hand?
I wish that the nights would never end
because it takes a lifetime for heartbreak to mend.
but hand in hand and two smiles strong
maybe it wouldn't take so very long.
I'd ask, but you're never here and always there
so I only hope that my feelings are ones we share.
that if the heavens above forget I exist
you do the same, so I won't ever be missed.
Because this feeling of me, myself, and only I
are mine to be kept until I too slowly die.
And this is the waltz that you and I dance
if only you saw my heart when you once did glance.
