Falling For You

I was dancing on the edge
Twirling and spinning
My laughter carried over the air
You were in the middle
And I wanted you to be there

I was leaping and skipping
In circles around you
Careful not to touch
Or fall or misstep
Or linger to much

Step for step
My eyes were your eyes
Your smile was true
My dress swirled as I danced
In a circle around you

Someone came behind me
In a second I stumbled
Falling, I cried out in alarm
But found myself safe
In the comfort of your arms.
