When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment. I told them they didn't understand life


You asked me to dance with you
And I said yes
You took my hand, led me out to the floor
And we danced
You said I looked beautiful
And I blushed pink
I told you, you looked better, and you said
Not possible
The instruments sang to us
Us, side by side
Your hand on my waist, mine on your shoulder
Together
We didn’t speak; only danced
But then I saw
I looked up into your eyes, your blue eyes
You were sad
Something wrong
In your head
I asked you what had happened
And you said
That when the clock struck 12, you would be gone
The clock struck 12
You ran away, you left me
I recall
I stretched my hand out to try and reach you
But you were gone
It was a night of romance
Just one night
