As I dance under the moon, I recall the time we danced together.
Now I only hear the winds whisper, there is no measure of time that will ever divide my love from you.
The fire we have shared is still burning.
I can still feel the love you gave, giving me courage.
But as I dance, I wish for you to hold me, I wish for us to dance together.
My heart only sees the star you are. My heart only feels the love you gave so freely. My heart wants to be strong for you.
Why did you dance over the bridge, as you are the brightest star in the sky.
Don’t tell of the brightest star, for you are the brightest star in the sky.
As my curious soul will not rest before we dance again.
I will travel to find and see you again, to dance under a full moon full of stars, at lands ending.
My heart wishes for your dreams, to see you laugh again.
(In memory of Annie)
