A Heart Can Forget To Dance put your arms around me just this, this is my plea I want to feel a tender touch forgotten the needs of such can you help me find my feet teach me the steps so sweet a heart can forget to dance but not the desire of romance loneliness in nights and days memories music slowly plays painfully it should not be this way give up, give in or forget, no never I believe, this is my true endeavor of this dream, just one of some that the best is yet to come I want to dance not stand still it is not enough to what I feel so put your arms around me just this, this is my plea “all romantics meet the same fate”…Joni Mitchell |

I want to feel a tender touch forgotten the needs of such can you help me find my feet teach me the steps so sweet a heart can forget to dance but not the desire of romance What beauty you've written here! And you're right... a heart can forget to dance and a face can forget to smile... often needing help to remember. *S* |

interesting, thoughtful, emotive 'write'! I am particularly fond of: "...help me find my feet teach me the steps so sweet a heart can forget to dance but not the desire of romance" Applause!! |
