If she hadn’t caught me looking each time If she hadn’t held my gaze without hesitation If she hadn’t smiled like she already knew me I never would have found a voice to ask her for the dance I never would have felt her hand in mine I never would have lost myself in the moment One dance and suddenly I can think of nothing else |

You know I love this don’t you? Of course you do. For yes, that was the perfect dance,… this is the perfect dance. And ya know? She can suddenly think of nothing else either. (btw, I love yer mushy side) You held me tight, my hand in yours Your heart beat against mine And danced me into wonderment A moment lost in time One dance, yes, just one dance I too, re-live within my mind The memory so precious I think of nothing else, I find If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

It happens so suddenly when we least expect it. May you dance the dance and always feel this way. Beautiful writing Duncan. |

Wonderful! It's like she boldly sent an invitation with her eyes that he couldn't help but respond to. |
