Dance Floor

You know, I debated for some time whether or not I should post this. I feared how someone might read too much into it, or misinterpret the sentiment behind it… And then, in my typical fashion, I decided to say f*ck it and post it anyway. I am much better at expressing myself through words, in case you haven't noticed… why stop now?
 
I do hope the subject of the song finds this, reads it, and takes it for what it is: My simple, heartfelt thank you for sharing a smile and helping me make the most of a tough situation. This was the best way I could think to express my appreciation.
 
 
Dance Floor
 
I was sittin' in my chair
All the way back there
Watchin' all the dancin'
And even some romancin'
 
Was about to go
When her sparkling eyes caught mine
And right then and there
I couldn't even blame the wine
 
Instead of leavin' like I planned
I let lead her lead me by the hand
 
And we danced the night away
Without a care in the world
Watchin' her grin
Holding tight to that girl
 
Just when I couldn’t take it anymore
I met that pretty girl out there on the dance floor
 
Now I ain't got a lot of moves
And don't exactly have a groove
But there was somethin' 'bout those eyes
That made me feel alive
 
Spun her like a ballerina
Pulled her close in back to me
We giggled and we smiled
We must have been a sight to see
 
Yeah, was gonna go back all alone
Man, if you'd asked me if I'd known
 
I'd dance the night away
Without a care in the world
Watchin her grin
Holding tight to that girl
 
Just when I couldn’t take it anymore
I met that pretty girl out there on the dance floor
 
Now I may never see her again
But man, it was worth it my friend
 
Even if for only one night
She had me feelin' alright
Dancing the night away…
 
Just when I couldn’t take it anymore
I met that pretty girl out there on the dance floor
 
Yeah
 
Just when I couldn’t take it anymore
I met that pretty girl out there on the dance floor
