Dance with me
Will you dance with me?
Barefoot
to a wordless song
Will you dance with me?
Barefoot
heartbeat to heartbeat
Come, let us to use put
the strength of youth renewed
by the morning sun
and in tension hold present and future
through this fiery momentous heat
of unbridled passion
till we behold the future in form foetus
nurtured to full term
Come, see the images of our lives as in a slide
how we made history and cheated death
warm of an embrace
beneath the iroko
Dance with me
to an unending wordless song
tango to the rhythm
of passionate erotica
Dance with me
in this oasis of peace
heartbeat to heartbeat
and let this story never die
