Two is for Tango

Me and the dance floor don't really get along, but she made me want to tango
So, against my introverted instincts I approached her with half a cup of confidence and the other half nerves 
Only to let my lips reach for the words, may I have this dance 
A pause of one second turns into one minute before my ears are kissed by a yes
Then we walk on a waterbed for the first couple of steps before dancing on the clouds next to a bed of roses
Pocket full of Posey's
I don't suppose we could let this cupid shuffle continue into the next song
Because I can sense some chemistry, forgive me if I'm wrong
It wasn't my best class in school
I'm the type that likes to let creativity rule
And the right side of my brain is thinking of you the perspective of the left
After the end of the second song, she left
Nothing but a heavy impression on me was left
What's your number is the only question left
So, I turned around and looked to my left
But she was gone 
p.s. what a lovely night...
