The Endless Dance

She crept down the stairs to the party below, And there awaited her chance. She stood on her toes, and clung to his legs, The first time he taught her to dance. A towering figure of power and strength He rose above her world. A gentle giant, a guiding force, To that "oh-so-little" girl. Time has passed. Now she clings to his waist, And she no longer stands on his toes. The party is formal - white satin and lace, But the first dance is "His", he knows! They dance together now, face to face. His eyes reflect her world. The party is over - she's moving on, But she's secretly still "His Girl." We're dancing now - inside my dreams. We'll always be together... As I close my eyes and visualize, I'm dancing with my father.
