you and keep you
from the dark and your fears--
I will dance with you and embrace you
All night.
Touch you
and caress you
before the bright moon fades--
I will hold you, dear, and dance through
the night.
Possess
you and trust you
each night and lonely day--
together we soar like stars through
the night.
Love you
and dream of you
through the darkness of day--
alone, I long for the comfort
of night.
Mourn you
and burry you
after the music stops
when we turn old and gray and our
dance ends.
