Slow Dance
Slow Dance
Since you've been gone
I'm sitting here thinking
what went wrong
Doing only ok
Time slipping away
Like January wrapped inside of May
I miss your touch
the love in your face
your lips closing in
your strong embrace
2 angels we made laying side by side
snowball fights, late nights
holding you by the firelight
Slow dance
wanna go on forever
let's make it last
our bodies melting together
this heart is burning up in all your love
we fit together like a ball and glove
Feeling your sweet breath inside of me
the warmth of your skin drinks me in softly
Slow dance
A tear falls down my windowpane
a track reminding me
another one closely following
grabs a hold starts slow dancing
like this love our greatest fear
hits the ground and disappears
looking back through all these years
You will always be to me my first slow dance.
