The Waltz

He stands mightily with elegance

Arms around my waist in complete arrogance

His hand I must take

This smile I must fake

My eyes wander the room

And I have resurrected from the tomb

Of you I've caught sight

You've been observing me all night

Your eyes plead a single dance

But I refuse to take the chance

The suspense you cannot stand

You approach me gently grabbing my hand

And steal me away from my lover

The glaring eyes we cannot cover

We make our way to the floor

We gracefully begin to soar

The music begins to play

In your arms is where I want to stay

This night has to end

There is no need to pretend

Your eyes beg me to stay

Come now, we have to part ways

Dawn breaks the rooster calls

With your touch you tore down the walls

The Waltz, the purity of its art

Is how you captured my heart

Everything has a start

But now we must grow apart.
