In the Heat of the Dance

"In the Heat of the Dance"



         sultry, steaming
Feel the heat
         pleasing, pulsating
Find the beat

Her black buttons leading down a white cotton dress
His curl on the brow, slick duck-tailed hair, cut to impress

The two swing and rock, twist and turn
The rug was tossed, the floor meant to burn

         envision, imagine
See the dance, feel the heat
         revolve, evolve
In their dance, one heartbeat

Now a slow rhythm, swaying, silky with wet
Eyes following, knowing since they first met

Strawberry wine lips find his approaching kiss
Dancing closer, tasting her is sweet bliss

         initiate
Find the beat in the dance
         illuminate
Feel the heat in the trance
