Dance the Night Away

Dancing the night away
 under pail moonlight
 My love dances with me
 for my love never fails
 endless my love is in me
 and never shall it fail
 Dance the night away
 Could this pain that ails
 me thou my heart is fray
 My blood
 My heart
 My mind
 My body
 I give my love all of me
 My strength of body and mind
 as mighty as a big oak tree
 How do I live in the peace of mind
 When my perception falls behind
 My heart takes lead
 And I become the tree
 Also vulnerable I have become
 How do I escape the sadness
 for breakdown
 and lapse into madness
 The world is cruel to me I think
 and despite the fact I don't drink
 My insides die and begin to stink
 I plot my end
 But the voice in side says
 you're wrong again
 The world doesn't want you
 to meet your end
 What to do In my time of need
 talk to those dearest to me
 and then the thought that somewhere
 Somebody is waiting just like me
 never the less
 Those past loves I keep a piece in my heart
 demonstraighting that I do love
 despite the cold of war
 that has crippled my heart
 My love are still there
 In the depths of my heart
 Covering it's walls like beautiful art
 And so I wait
 For the right mate
 My final love that makes me complete
 SO that I may dance on happy feet
 Hand in hand
 with my love
 and know that I will always,
 Be in love
 Dance the night away
