The Long Loving Night

Almost alone on the dance floor,
The stars twinkling in a midnight sky,
Other dancers hidden in the fog of night,
Music dragging dancers through tired steps,

We dance happy in each other's arms
And the night will not be long enough
For passions swirl and twirl around
As they blossom from within us.

As the last notes fade into the darkness,
Our entwined spirits soar into the dawn.
And our bodies ache to entwine too.
Unsatisfied yet, we speed home.

In our bedroom the fire of lust is lit,
Clothes lose their shape
As they fall to the floor,
And lovers melt unto the bed.
