A Foolish Dance

Did I hear you laugh
In the middle of the night
My friend
Did I hear you cry
With the world between us turned
Upend

Take me in your arms
For a foolish dance
Let our troubles drift away

How we pass our days
In a whirlwind of desire
And pain
Silence has no chance
In the middle of a hurricane

Dance with me tonight
In the firelight
Let our troubles slip away

Words unspoken say so much more
Than tortured tears and old rancour
Answered in mystery where love is kept
Under lock and key
Hearts of ours
With love on fire

So take me in your arms
For a foolish dance
Let our troubles drift away
Let our troubles drift away
