'Would you like to dance?'

I'm expecting 'No chance'

But you're still standing there

Thought you'd walk on

You haven't gone anywhere

The music is slow

Lights are low

Time to take your hand, and go

Out onto the floor

Nothing else

Matters anymore

We start to move

No need to rush

Nothing to prove

Except maybe to us

The mirrorball

Is throwing stars around the hall

In your eyes, in your hair

Everywhere

To hold you, feel you

I know you feel it too

Lost in the moment, the here and now

It's just a dance and yet somehow

It's become much more

Out on the floor

As the music ends

We part, we smile

You leave with your friends

And you're gone

But the spot on the floor

Where the mirrorball shone

Though empty, makes me smile

For I know, just for a while

What we shared

Was not publicly aired

For three minutes, we cared

I don't have your number

Or even your name

But we took our moment

And we lit it, created a flame

Took a chance

Two lost souls

Shared

A last dance
