Dancer in the Sky
You spoke of one to hold you close,
To get you through the night.
I count my lonely hours now,
In dreams of how I might.
As lightning builds and thunder rolls,
The hiss of rain draws high.
You come in a vision to me,
As my dancer in the sky.
And when the storm has rumbled on,
Your spirit stays behind.
To fill my night with wonder,
If only in my mind.
Could you sleep the night in peace;
WIth your nightmares held at bay?
If the dragons that so haunt you,
In fantasy I'd slay?
Would you give yourself to me;
Allow me what you prize?
To lose myself within you,
As wished for in your eyes.
Then all of a sudden,
You leave in an agile motion,
And spin skyward in the air.
Where in the star lit heavens,
We danced once
And then said good-bye.
Our music was a lovers tango;
A storm of passion born.
Remember the love we have had.
Even if only until the rise of morn.
