THE DANCE

THE DANCE

Looking across the room,
He saw her sitting there
For a moment time just stopped,
Their eyes locked in a stare

Then the music started playing,
That country swing again
Walking toward each other,
Their hearts began to sing

They met there in the middle,
As if bodies in a trance
Clinging closely to each other,
They began that night to dance

To the music very loud and fast,
And to that so sweet and low
They danced to every dance played,
For within their hearts did know

When the band stopped playing,
They’d not meet again in life
She’d return to her husband,
And he back to his wife
