My trusted Desley,
where would I be without you
You carry mine,
I carry you
Together we go places, and pull it through
Here comes another transit
ready or not,
Another check-in
in another spot,
ID, OD
What is next?
It takes a clairvoyant,
to know what to expect...
Take me to customs
to file a report
On the road to nowhere
(that's wehre we want to be)
The label is lost,
the key is broken.
But we'll carry on,
by the same token.
My trusted Desley,
where would I be without you
You carry mine,
I carry you
Together we go places, and pull it through
My trusted Desley
(shoop - shoop- shoop dohwaaah)
My trusted Desley

One Leg Dancing

One leg dancing
Hey, the moon is out tonight.
Catch us dancing, to a timing that is just 'bout right
Show, show what you can do
One leg dancing is no easy thing to do.
Get balanced, don't slip overboard.
It takes some practice, a rhythm and a chord.
Move, or at least don't stand still.
One leg dancing, if you can't, you bet I will.
So, where have you been?
Come & try the moves, - that rule the scene.
Unwind and at ease, when you're dancing...
Who, who you want to be?
One leg dancer, careless & free.
Get balanced, stick to the floor,
Essential swaying, if you like it you can get some more.
Roll over, then jump back again,
One leg dancing, every woman, every man
Slave, slave to the beat
If you can, join the boogie, or tap your feet
Say, say what you wanna say
Speak to me with body language, 'till the break of day.
Dance, dance to the groove
If you can, do the boogie, yeah

Now you see me, now you don't
All a matter of afterglow
I'll be dancing through the dark
you might catch me in a waltz
Here comes the night dance
Here comes the night dance
Steps and slides,
synchronizing.
Disco Wizard,
while the moon is rising
Will you jive, or jump in line?
Whatever's coming from the deejay
too much treble or flakey bass?
all comes down to proper mixing...
Here comes the night dance
Can you tango? It aint't that hard
Just forget you're not a dancer
In the ballroom of romance
you might get caught in a cha cha cha
Here comes the night dance
Syncopated, animated
Something's waiting round the corner
let a rhythm, let a beat
get you to a new groove
Here comes the night dance
Here comes the night dance

Disco lights

Take your disco lights
Out tonight
Send your laserbeam
into the sky
Lord I'm lonely
But the beat will guide me
back to the place
where we can be together
Unbox your dancing shoes
don't tie them too loose
Emoji, gives me a sign
that all is still fine?
Here comes the disco king
watch him do his thing
like a chachacha
before the camera
There 's a tendency
in the tinder scene
that if you dance alone
you get stuck in the zone
But I don't mind
as long as I can find
a disco light
shining through

Dance on the vulcano
05:23
|

When the moon is up
and the sun is down
come dancing
And the fog crawls up
from the sea below
come dancing
Dance on the vulcano
Waltz on the Titanic
When the stars come out
and the night bird calls
come dancing
When the rhythm goes down
into a sway of sorts
Come dancing
When the light is fading
and the tide has turned
come dancing
When the door is closed
crawl through the window
come dancing
Dance on the vulcano
Waltz on the Titanic
( take a chance now)

Just dance
no strings attached.
Just dance
no strings attached.
Then again I think I love you
or at least I could
if you say you would do too.
May we dance
Just dance
And could we be friends
May we dance
Just dance
And could we be friends
Then again I think I trust you
I wouldn't mind
to be on my knees
all the time
all the time.

A winter's waltz

A Winter's Waltz
Too many dancers
have left the hall
Out in the cold
where snow falls down
The night flies by so quickly
you could blink and never see it,
again...
Up in the sky
a pale moonlight
All of this war
just feels insane.
City burns, life cut short
without sense or purpose
I want to hear
a winter's Waltz
All of them dreams
and hope for future plans
May still come to pass
As long as this train can reach Berlin,
As the eastern front is almost reaching Paris
again
I see you think
the tide has passed
the ship has sailed,
on a transient wave
lighthouse signals fast
you could blink and never see it
but it comes around again
Too many roads have turned to ice
and promisses unmasked as lies
a hellish cold is coming
you could freeze and never know it
So play me a waltz
"Muse of many twinkling feet"
measure and step
In a winter's waltz again ...

Slide Step
Hey now, watch your slide step
You could easily go astray.
You think, you think you take a straight course
But in fact, you're just going around and round
Hey now, take a look at my sidestep
Two four, you can make it up
as you go along
One two, I can see that you practised
No worries, you know I will tag along
Hi there, can you hear me?
Trying to get in touch with you
The slide step that you've been taking
Sure led you away from the beaten track.
Oh lord, finders keepers,
If only things could be simple as that
Use the side door, that's wwhat they said
But still, we're left out in the rain
Tiger! Tiger! burning bright
In the Forest of the Night
(last two lines from William Blake's poem "The Tyger" 1794)
