Ballroom Dance For Modern Lovers

[Verse 1]
One, two steps forward, spin me around
Toss me in the air, I'll fall back down
One, two steps forward, and two steps back
I hope you can one day deal with that
Three, and hold me tight, keep me alive
Or let me down, it'd be dramatic
Three, and kiss me deep, I love you dear
But we both know dancing takes more than that

[Chorus]
So how 'bout this, I will be faithful
I will be gentle and kind and loving
I will throw myself in your arms
And you will catch me, in every moment
And when your back hurts, I will soothe you
When you get home from work
We can dance these nights away

[Verse 2]
One bottle of rum kept in your fridge
Pour small amounts before we kiss
Two bodies together, not anything deeper
Little monuments to bigger things
Three places to go, winters covered in snow
Watching you as you glow, a small halo
Affixed to your skull, a blessing in disguise
I brush the snow off your hair, you kiss the top of my head

[Chorus]
So how 'bout this, I will be faithful
I will be gentle and kind and loving
I will throw myself in your arms
And you will catch me, in every moment
And when your back hurts, I will soothe you
When you get home from work
We can dance these nights away

[Chorus]
So how 'bout this, I will be faithful
I will be gentle and kind and loving
I will throw myself in your arms
And you will catch me, in every moment
And when your back hurts, I will soothe you
When you get home from work
We can dance these nights away
