US

​

Us went dancing way after dark

All alone in the park

Not a starlight upon us

No music to our ears

Us moved in sync to the sound of our fears

His of she

Mine of he

But us alone was as happy as can be

Old Father Time was not on our minds

And as the hours pressed forward, us kept pressing rewind

Then wouldn’t you know it, out came the sun

And us could no longer be together as one

It was now time to part and shake off what was more than just lust

And wait for night to fall when once again, there would be us
