Watching, waiting, enjoying the way
The white dress sways across your legs.
You look so lovely as you dance.
Your hand like a dream feels warm
In mine as I lead the dance,
My clumsy feet avoiding yours.
We are the life of this party.
The lights are dim as the dance goes on,
The lights are bright as I stand still,
Statue-still at the altar,
Watching, waiting, enjoying the way
The white dress sways across your legs.
You look so cheery as you approach.
Your face like a dream I see
Out of the corner of my eye
Stealing a glance
As we say our vows tonight,
Then go away to our second dance.
Us together, the perfect fit
Until the dance ends,
The moment we
Both have been so
Eagerly awaiting.
The dance ends, just like
The vows fade with the magic.
The clock strikes twelve
And, racing down empty streets
Each to our own home,
Our own personal
Happily
Ever afters,
We separate,
Leaving the glass slippers behind.
