Save the Last Dance For Me

Standing in the corner, watching all the love and romance Watching the twirling couples with envy as they dance The fast ones and the slow ones, they dance the night away But I remembered what you told me, just the other day. Yes you can dance if you long to, dance your night away Dance until the dawn arrives, and the start of a new day. But no matter how long you dance or which partner you dance with Remember they just want to dance, they don’t have love to give. The dance that is important is the last dance of the night The last dance that you dance, will be with the one who loves you right. When we are on the dance floor, and the rest of the dancers are gone The dance will be for us my love, a dance of love that goes on and on. On the dance floor of desire which is the dance floor of such love We’ll dance the last dance together, as close as hand in glove. The last dance will be a slow one, and will last our whole lives through So save that last dance for me my love, the one that loves you true. ©~GG~ 10/01/2013
