He stood in my cellar He stood in my basement He stood in my kitchen and whispered in my ear of shadows on the wall that resembled fantasies he’d had and we danced with one foot on the floor and we swayed to our heartbeats ‘til the tempo was undanceable and then began swaying with no feet on the floor creating our own shadows on the wall resembling fantasies I’d had We swayed with the leaves of the trees with the waters of the streams with the visions of my dreams and once again we swayed with one foot on the floor He gave me the world Yes he gave me a stage and said All the world’s a stage so all the stage is your world take your stage and make a one woman show play all the lives of all the people on your word and I looked at him and smiled as I placed one bare foot on the stage and invited him to dance with me with one foot on my world - Shelley Nation
