My child bearing years, you see
But nothing can replace the intoxication
Of a new pair of lips and limbs when the clock strikes midnight
Forever at my lips, bidding adieu to sobriety
I can follow and fall into the arms of a new sincerity
Unburdened by half-baked promises, letters of stress and civil warfare
I can be your wife, I can be your life
But only for a night
Forever at my lips bidding adieu,
This is a dance I love to do
My nature proclaims a livelihood of attraction
A constant hunger and desire for justification
My dance I continue
I waver into the night
A flimsy frolic in the daze of whiskey
Lips and limbs anew
A dance of forgiven sins and Spanish limbs
A dance of forgiven sins and German fingertips
A dance of forty five minutes and millions of pelvic on my hips
This is my dance, not his.
The partners come and go
But the dance is me.
I am the ringmaster
My name belongs to me.
Forever alight with song and dance
A chance of meeting a new thrill
The intoxication of one night spill
A class of movies and sin
A dance that begs for gin.
This is my dance, my dance is me
You can join, but not in sobriety.
A cuddle or two is nice aftercare,
But the idea of true love is a story hard to bear
A few limbs, millions of genitals makes my fix
For my dance is me, my dance is I
Burning ablaze in the wake of the night
I am me, you are not
My dance is me, My dance is I
Forever forever engraved in my soul
A dance of my own
A life made for me, made for the rich lining that resides in my whole.
I am whole. I am me. I am the dance with or without sobriety.
Come hither, jealousy.
