little things

dance

As we danced, it was nice
And if I'm completely honest
I glanced more than once at your eyes
It was quiet and reassuring
And it looked like the water was flowing
I felt like I was swimming and I didn't want to stop

I wish I had told you that night
That I had made up my mind
All I want to do is swim in your eyes
I could look at them all day and night

I wish that I had told you that that night
As we spun around
Twirling and talking
Without making a sound

I wish I had told you
I wish I had told you
