My Heart Dances

I see you in the distance and I see us as we are

So nearly so contented, but a careless word too far

I see you in confusion for a once enchanted boy

My heart dances, oh, oh, but not for joyI longed to love you better but I swear I don't know how

You could have been my future but I had to have it now

The things we love completely we are fated to destroy

My heart dances, oh, oh, but not for joyIt's easy to be certain that another's heart will fall

Much harder to be certain of your own

It moves you, and inspires you then it drives you to the wall

And leaves you so excited but aloneMy heart dances, oh, oh

My heart dances, oh, oh

My heart dances, oh, oh, but not for joy
