Dream When I'm Dancing

(A  song for Thelma, who loved to dance)

When we first danced and embraced in romance

All of our feelings held within one glance

And then to sway, how the music would play

Eyes softly meeting as we drift away

Dream when I'm dancing, dream when I dance

So take me dancing forever in your arms

Dream when I'm dancing, dream when I dance

And fill my soul with love and romance

Oh can you hear now the melody's clear

Words still unspoken, feelings reappear

Here in this time you are once again mine

Dreams gently drifting as hearts intertwine

Dream when I'm dancing, dream when I dance

So take me dancing forever in your arms

Dream when I'm dancing, dream when I dance

And fill my soul with love and romance

Bridge

Turn when I'm dancing, Turning again

Time to remember love

And though we are parted, I can once again see

When dancing it's just you and me

Dream when I'm dancing, dream when I dance

So take me dancing forever in your arms

Dream when I'm dancing, dream when I dance

And fill my soul with love and romance
