out in the heart of a rainstorm

long
it has been so long since i danced with you
i sit on this chair in a hall of memories
where dust has substance in light
ghosts of the living are turning
to this ballroom song

speak
say you'll dance with me, for i'll dance with you
we'll waltz in circles to the spirit of things
as violins inspire me, to unify ocean and desert
to give you a coloured sphere for you to hold to your breast...



i have seen opals of light through the window
i have seen the way the clouds have blown…
running through the long grass of a dream
to a door which needs two keys
i will open it for you
will you open it for me?

you have me wait
so i wait with dreaming eyes
for the heart of your rainstorm
for the beat of your emerald drum

all i wish for is you, for you
you have the mysteries of a rainforest
i've never seen before, love i long to explore

take me there
take me home

this is the time to dance
