To Dance
To danceA prospective of bonesMusical bathIt's clearing a path of one's ownBlue jeans and muscleOr crinoline rustleYou learn it in class or aloneTo danceTo danceIt's a gravity thingShoes to the earthPulling toward a verse that is beckoningOh, the dizzy affectOf rhythm and sweatFlying like a kid in a swingTo danceArms in a momentSome worried connectionTelling of heartsWhere they don't need protectionA journey in placeLetras de cancionesA private affection to shareTo danceIs swimming in timeWhere passion, and public, and prudence can somehow alignMoving like lovers on top of the coversEveryone knows it's alrightTo danceTouch without touchingLove without breathingHold on and let go without anyone leavingAll of part of the beat you're receivingAnd sending back out through your feetIn itself it's completeGod it is sweetTo danceTo danceThe movement confines limbs in a language That is spoken in three quarter timeAnd is suddenly gone at the end of the songAnd you knew you were safe all alongTo danceTo danceTo dance
