As the world turns carousel-style This smile you've left me caused my dizzy spell I've tried to smear it on my shirt So it would become impossible to get out Mess up my whites Stain through to my soul Make my half wants whole
What I loved about our movements together Was the fact that our bodies knew the rhythm Before the track played As the lights splayed onto your shoulders Cheeks aflame Air Thick like your locks 35 minutes past 5 o'clock Tumbling, similar to my weakening defenses At that moment, it wasn't even Capoeira But how could one protect their face From such striking beauty?
Persian pearls penetrating my mind Your eyes fight fires and ignite desire That night, I would've been just fine Dying on sight Trying to hold a dancing dream at midnight.
