Across a Room

laser light shows reflect and glare spaced out drunks leave right now smoke apears from down the stairs avenging angles make amends stare at you on the dance floor stare at you and then once more eyes of passion look of pain i would die to know your name you and i across a room one with joy one in gloom you watch me as i watch you and yet you dance the night away in the shadows content i stay and so another week passes by another week without a smile as i walk into our bar i turn around and there you are you smiled at me and asked my name made me happy forget the pain and so we danced the night away the week the month the whole decade and when i look across a room i dream of you my fate my wife i am for filled this is my life
