The Dancing Burglar

When someone steals your heart
     And whisks it right away
You never see it coming,
     It’s just another day

When love is unexpected
   And you’re taken by surprise
Swept up by a dancing burglar
     Your heart willingly complies   

It’s when you’re just not looking
     That you may find your love
When one charming intruder
     Dances in from up above

Love as they say is a second had emotion.. where in one hand it can be broken, but in the other hand it can be healed by a new love..
