Dance
I can no longer dance the dance
That love had taught me long ago
These days my feet can only shuffle
The dance of love I use to know
I miss the sweetness of loves kisses
And the warmth of other lips
These days I have no love to speak of
My lover’s moon has now eclipsed
Now and then I do remember
What love was like when I was young
Although I’ve tried to fined another
The songs I’ve tried remain unsung
There are no steps that I consider
There are no steps I can recall
These days when I try to remember
I cannot move I only fall
I wish I was for just one day
To be the young man I had been
Just so I might dance a little
And recall my sweet youth again
