The Single Shadow Waltz

I dance in my mind in a black hall under spotlight

Waltzing by myself, waiting for a partner.

"Left hand out, right hand to her waist."

I've been practicing for so long, you see.

No music plays yet, so I just hum.

I dance here only with my shadow.

My foot steps echo back to me,

They, my only companions.

And look,

I forgot to get dressed up.
Join me, my dear,
I know you know this song.
