BARSONG If I could, I would But I can’t So I don’t Ask you to dance. I’m here in this bar You’re near yet so far And if I could, I would Ask you to dance. Ask you to dance Take us away Live in the stars Love in that way And dance our dance. A sidelong glance The curve of your cheek Are you bold Are you meek You look so fine You look so good Sipping your wine And I know if I stood Up and asked you to know The you that is you A chance would bloom And a chance would grow I would, if I could But I can’t so I don’t Ask you to dance. Ask you to dance Take us away Live in the stars Love in that way And dance our dance. So here in this bar You so near yet so far Unspoken promises Unspoken hope I would, if I could But I can’t so I don’t Ask you to dance. Ask you to dance Take us away Live in the stars Love in that way And dance our dance. ~ Pete Bolte (pbolte@msn.com)~ You are welcome to use the graphics on this page providing you use them as a set and don't mix them with other graphics.
