Foxtrot Hymn for the Stars

I guess this a chance for me to reflect on some of the songs I've written. Foxtrot Hymn for the Stars is a song about heart break, but not just in relation to a girl. Well, that too, but it's about heartbreak for the whole world. And it's about dancing too.

I’m waiting for the sun to rise
And shine upon my life.
It’s golden rays for endless days
void from loneliness and strife.

I never thought that I could fall
So far away from God.
That which I fear is in my mind,
Not only in my heart.

If you want true love,
You can have mine.
But you might wait long - I take my time.
Not only this, you should know,
We were meant to be.

We learn to dance our lives away,
Through mirth, through love, through cheer,
To spread our song through all the earth,
And to see through eyes so clear.

If you want true love,
You can have mine.
But you might wait long - I take my time.
Not only this, you should know,
That Love alone can save your soul.

We must learn to dance our lives away,
Through mirth, through love, through cheer,
Just hold your partner in your gaze...
And see through eyes so clear.
