At Last (First Dance)

29/05/2020 – Iso Well-Being Compilation

 

When I saw you, I knew

That this is where we’d end up

And, though it took a while to admit,

I couldn’t imagine life without you.

 

We’ve had our ups and downs,

Not always been in step with each other,

But we so often come together

When it really matters.

 

We’ve tripped and stumbled,

And caught each other when we’ve fallen,

With never a question as to our love,

Or to where our heart lies now.

 

I’ve never felt as safe as I do

Wrapped in your arms right now

And though we may sway from time to time

I don’t fear you letting me go.

 

You spin me round and pulled me in,

But I’m never more dizzy than when

We’re standing close, cheek to cheek,

And you whisper in my ear.

 

The whirl of love in its early days

May have lost a beat or two,

Though I’d never change this journey

That has brought us to this point.

 

I look forward to our future

As we twirl through this thing called life,

Happy in our own small world

Two motes in a vast universe.

 

As we take the floor, at last,

Just we two together,

There’s no fancy pirouette or grand jete –

Just our first dance joined as one.
