[bodytext] => I want so much but I dare not ask, hiding behind this silly little mask. I watch and stare as days go by, just wanting and wanting and not knowing why. When i finally speak up it''ll be too late, because you will have already choosen a different date. As I see you dance and twirl and smile, I decide to stay here for a while. Hoping perhaps you''ll look over here, quietly sitting almost cowering in fear. I dread the thought of dancing with you, yet I want to so bad, what do I do? A friend sits down as lonely as I, to sit and chat while time goes by. Without a word he knows at which I stare, challanging my pride with the same old dare. Asking you to dance is his challange for me, but I''d rather cower, hide, or at least flee. All of a sudden he pushes me to you, heart pounding and scared, I don''t know what to do. Before I could escape my biggest fear, I see you motion for me to "come here." The next song goes slow and so do I, cautiously approaching and wanting to cry. You smile and ask if I would like to dance, I want to say no but this is my chance. So I take your hand and lead you around, but by the beat of my heart because it drowns out all other sound. The dance ends with a wink and a kiss, I realize now how much I didn''t have to miss. You would have said yes if I had asked before, but it''s all for the best, if not for more. You see how I feel by the look in my eye, that if I can''t have you now, I''ll just die. But I see how much you''ve wanted me too, so I hold you close... because I finally know what to do!
