I step back,
You leap ahead.
You tap your feet,
Senses all dead.
I step forward,
You give me a twirl.
We swap partners,
Yours a lusty girl.
You return to me,
I take your hand.
You give it a squeeze,
We sway to the band.
You whisper sweet words,
I laugh, happy as can be.
No one's in the dance floor,
Except you and me.
You press me close,
I smell your perfumed breath.
I lean closer,
You jump back as if seeing death.
I walk away,
You quickly pursue.
You go down on one knee,
Confused, I say I do.
