Shall we dance?
Let us move amongst the long, dark caresses of the night
Hold me close
Until you feel my heart’s life in yours
Let us sway
As our bodies
Move in a rhythm that no other can feel
Silence my breath with a kiss
Taste the scent of this music
‘Til the fever of our dance overtakes us
And burns our bodies
Like a flame consumes us
In a swirl of life and ashes
The music pulls us tight
And thus, bound we will rise
Until we pass this mortal life
And to the heavens take us
