May I Have This Dance

It’s like we live in memories
Of things from the past
Both wanting nothing more
Than for us to be able to last

Letting our love linger
Through the cold breeze of winter air
Reaching out for your hand
In hopes that your there

We can’t live our lives like this
Wondering when things will go bad
I want us to go back
To the times we had

To the things we remember
But no longer share
The times of never letting go
Even through days of despair

I want it how it use to be
When you were not afraid
When in my arms you felt safe
And our future for us was made

Wipe those misty blue eyes
For I am your tears
And if you were mine
I wouldn’t cry because losing you is my fear

Calm those nerves
And take a chance
Everyone deserves
Their time to dance

So dance with me
Like no one is watching
Take my hand
And you will see

Sway your body
And move your feet
Let my hearts tempo
Be our beat

And stay close to me
I will guide you ever step
So I stick my hand out to you and ask
Can I have this dance?
