May I?

Sometimes I look at you and I want to ask you "May I have this dance?" Sometimes you mesmerize me To the point where all I can do is nod and smile Even when you ask me something I don't dare answer For if I said anything you would have to decipher what I meant Take my hand You say you're not a good dancer But I disagree Your dancing replays through my mind Every movement more graceful than the last And when the light hits you I swear you're the epitome of the word cinematic Shall we take the floor? Your lead or mine? Your hand in mine? Shall we slow dance? Or something more complex? Sorry I know I can be clumsy I'm tripping head over heels for you When I'm with you I find myself dancing To a new but pleasant tune.
