Dance With Me
Robert Shirey Kelly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your eyes light up
Your hands on my face
And all the world fades
And it's just us
And I feel the same
But different, too
That I love you
Oh, and I'm all yours now
So won't you dance with me?
Won't you dance with me?
I wanna spin you round
I wanna spin you round
I'm all yours now
I've counted the days
The weeks, and months
I've been turning the pages while you and me
Turn into us
Now darling we're here
It's coming true
Forever is right here for the taking
And I do
And I'm all yours now
I had been holding my breath
Wondering if
The stories were true, I
Started to forget
grey skies ever turn blue
Until I met you
So won't you dance with me?
Won't you dance with me?
I wanna spin you round
I wanna spin you round
So won't you dance with me?
Won't you dance with me?
I wanna spin you round
I wanna spin you round
I'm all yours now
Oh, oh

I love the way
I am truly fond of how
Your eyes light up
Your eyes beam with happiness and joy
Your hands on my face
Your delicate hands comfortably touch my face
And all the world fades
The whole world does not matter anymore
And it's just us
Only you and I are left in this world
And I feel the same
I share the same sentiment
But different, too
A new and unique perspective on our love
This ever-changing, steady way
Our infatuation, which is dynamically stable
That I love you
I cherish you so much
Oh, and I'm all yours now
I am completely devoted to you
So won't you dance with me?
Would you please join me in a dance?
I wanna spin you round
I desire to twirl you around
I've counted the days
I have meticulously kept track of every day
The weeks, and months
As well as weeks and months
I've been turning the pages while you and me
We have been flipping through life's chapters together
Turn into us
The two have become one
Now darling we're here
Now my love, we have arrived
It's coming true
My dream is becoming a reality
Forever is right here for the taking
Eternity is within reach
And I do
I am committed
I had been holding my breath
I had been anticipating with apprehension
Wondering if
Contemplating whether
The stories were true, I
The rumors held any veracity
Started to forget
I began to cease thinking about
grey skies ever turn blue
The gloominess would disappear
Until I met you
Until I encountered you
Oh, oh
Ah, ah
