Slow Dancing in the Dark

We should find a place to stay
Where we could spend everyday
In bed with the curtains drawn
Watching French films until dawn

We could slow dance while cooking
Drink white wine while smoking
We could be Serge and Jane
We could drive each other insane

Darling, let me be the one
To hang your clothes under the sun
To play with your hair until you sleep
And to hide with you beneath our sheets

We could get two pups, name them Church and Winston
We could turn on our record player to listen
To Francoise, Otis, Brigitte, and Billie
And mouth the words to Je Pense À Lui

We could write and paint together
We could lay and kiss each other
We could make love over and over
We could get a place together

Let me be the one, my love
To surprise you with a homemade pie
To kiss you twice on both your eyes
To jump into your arms when you enter the door
And to love you like Desdemona loved the Moor
