Jonathan
My knees are shaking, 
 I’m certain you can hear my beating heart
 Screaming over the sound of your voice 
 As you say,
 “May I have this dance?”
 
 I get those familiar chills when you
 Reach for my shaking hand.
 And I stare at the floor as we 
 Proceed to the center of the room.
 Drawing so much attention as we start to move.
 
 I start gasping for air,
 I forget how to breathe
 As your hand finds my hip.
 The moment you say my name
 Bringing me back to reality.
 
 Sing me a song,
 I don’t mind if it’s out of key.
 Only that you’re
 Right here beside me.
 Sing me a song,
 And I’ll be yours forever.
 Just keep singing for me, baby.
 
 You give me butterflies
 Every time you smile. 
 Those haunting shadows from my past
 Fade with every tentative glance.
 Through the dark, 
 I see your light.
 
 Look out over the crashing waves
 At our broadening horizon.
 Take my outstretched hand,
 We’ll make the jump together.
 I put so much faith in you, baby.
 
 Sing me a song,
 I don’t mind if it’s out of key.
 Only that you’re
 Right here beside me.
 Sing me a song,
 And I’ll be yours forever.
 Just keep singing for me, baby.
 
 Just keep singing for me, baby.
