Feel the music in your heart,
Touching softly, 'twill impart,
Upon the soul, heartfelt romance,
Two joined as one in sensual dance,
Passions coursing through the night,
Swaying softly, in Luna's light,
In song's reprise, love's symphony,
I sought my love, please come to me,
Sweet songs embrace, deep satin kiss,
I sought, I found, my mortal bliss,
But then the dawn, into the night,
The music fades in morn's first light,
On final note, so ends the dance,
As dancers wait for love's next chance
To turn away the lance of pain,
And dance again the sweet refrain.

Strains of Gershwin soothe the night,
With songs of love, Eros' delight,
Music kisses on the soul,
As passion's note, our hearts control,
Silence broken by the dance
Of two entwined, in song's romance,
Trembling as the harpist's string,
As from the heavens muses sing,
Dulcinea, come to me,
Together through eternity,
In my arms shall ever sway,
Throughout the nights, til break of day,
And with first light the dance is done,
Until once more the setting sun,
O' how I hunger for the night,
To dance once more, by heaven's light.
