Melancholy Waltz

Melancholy Waltz In the still, darkness of early morning I awake with a song of hope Still fresh on my lips My heart filled with the light of love Never known, until we were one Consuming my entire being Every thought, each and every breath My~~~ memories dance~~~~~~ You and I touching hands, touching hearts Touching each other's very souls As we dance in the pure joy of our love Slowly, dawn brings light And I realize the source of my pain, The reality... you are no longer mine I seek to cast intruding thoughts aside, Desperate to linger in the love dance For just a few precious moments more But the music has ended, and I know Today's hours will lead my body through the day, Waltzing alone to the sullen beat of my heart
