Can you tell me what made her dance
What put the smile upon her face
For I have not seen an ear to ear in some time

The warmth is gone from peaches lips
Her hair unkept emulates the state of her soul
And eyes are dried from running out of tears

I remember bare feet to cold ground
A twirl that assured she might lift from earth
As she warmed the air so much the sun doubted its worth

Her skin shone with the glow of a lover
Her hands gracing air and leaving on it fingerprints
Her life in between each symphonic note

Tell me what it was that made her dance
What made the sun and moon her spotlight
Instead of the things the signified another passing day
