New Dance

Getting along together
Dancing that same old dance
But you’ve forgotten the steps
So now what
Is this my new lot
You have changed
And I changed to be content 
with you
Working the dynamic 
Keeping up the merriment 
Breaking in the fantasy 
Fostering a brand spanking new way to play
Becoming rather tame
In this complicated adjustment 
Game
And finally I was coming
Into my own
Catching the big wave
But you changed
Now what
Me
I learn the new steps
I swirl and I sway
I dance a new dance
And I trip the light fantastic 
That’s what.
