Telling Stories in Words and Pictures and Song
Celestial Ballroom
You walked in the room
And started to dance
The crowd stepped back to clear the way
They’d never seen such romance
The Moon came in through an open door
To waltz with you ’cross the floor
The two of you joined and the tides rose high
Washing the towns from the shore and watching them collide
Then the stars began to sway
As mountains fell to the sea
Even gods in the sky stopped to see, wonder why, how can the both of you glide so peacefully
Oh my, stars started cry
You danced much too close to them
Orion tightened his belt
He drew his long sword to fight for you
And drive the comets away
So many have come and have gone before
But no one knew how to thrill all the gods before you came
Time bends before the end
To see you enter again
Everything likes to swing, even galaxies sing, watch the universe spin and be entranced by you
You walked in the room
And started to dance
