To Dance without Doubts

There I was, caught in the headlights
I'd gazed too long in her direction
Right there and then she called me out
On a stage, fully lit by the footlights
We danced together without reflection
If we were wrong to ignore our doubts
We'd be lost to the dangers of life
Because even when you are aware
Life has a way of stealing hope
When all we want is to know
After lives of famine and drought
What matters is why are we here
To fall in love is to actually live
And learn how to finally forgive
I want this beautiful life with you
Draw more near, never be gone
Tired of my pathetic existence
Sweetly appreciate your presence
This is the perfect gift to give
Full presence and acceptance
Finding safety and happiness
Together in that moment
