Night Of Our Dance

'Tis a memory we embrace dearly
My all time throwback I'd say
The first night
Only Friday night worth laying awake for
The one night my shyness was stripped off
My curves were moulded into perfect womanhood
Your magical hands carving and baking.

Bodies swayed to the blazing music
Excitement kissed rhythm and tempo alike
Sweat and alcohol stung in unison
This night would never end
Dawn was a million miles away
It was a hundred years off the hook.

You asked whether you were too fast
I clung on your shoulder for more
You wanted to know whether my limbs were faint
I threw my head back and laughed
How could I ever resist your arms?
Why would I ever want to?

I still harbour the secret smile that pinched your lips
The perfect uncoordinated moves too
Yes it was our only night
Even though I might never see you again
I still suffocate in your scent so male
The dance was worth the night out.
