Sleight of Heart

Let me have a romance, rich and grand,
before the floor falls from where I stand.

I've met you in my mind, what a soul you are!
But my grasp turned up empty, "oh, so far!"

If I met you passing in the street,
my breath fast, my heart skips a beat.

Would you say, "yes, you I'd like to know,"
or do I have to live with you saying, "no."

If the world wasn't so dangerous, just take a chance.
And tomorrow under the moon is where we could dance.
