Argentine Tango

and I see you dancing with some other 

and I know I 

     wouldn't want you anyway 

far too superior and regal for the likes of me 

I'd do something 

     I just know it 

too outrageous for words 

and 

I wouldn't 

even know it... 

but occasionally 

the dance 

comes my way 

and I get to hold 

onto you 

and run around the floor 

I'm getting better 

at it 

and I hope to one day

impress you no end 

with my prowess 

with my grace 

-with the satisfied look on 

     my face

 

They call this dance 

the four minute love affair 

and I'm thankful 

for the lack of entanglement, involvement,

And all the rest--- 

This dance gives 

     the best 

The connection 

The power, and the grace

the tension between 

the two lovers 

-for four minutes 

anyway
