Dance Me to the End of Love
Dance me to your beauty
with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic
'til I'm gathered safely in
Lift me like an olive branch
and be my homeward dove
Dance me
to the end of love
Dance me
to the end of love
Let me see your beauty
when the witnesses are gone
Let me feel you moving like
they do in Babylon
Show me slowly
what I only know the limits of
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the wedding now,
dance me on and on
Dance me very tenderly
and dance me very long
We're both of us beneath our love,
we're both of us above
Dance me
to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the children who are asking to be born
Dance me through the curtains
that our kisses have outworn
Raise a tent of shelter now,
though every thread is torn
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic
till I'm gathered safely in
Touch me with your naked hand
or touch me with your glove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me
to the end of love
with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic
'til I'm gathered safely in
Lift me like an olive branch
and be my homeward dove
Dance me
to the end of love
Dance me
to the end of love
Let me see your beauty
when the witnesses are gone
Let me feel you moving like
they do in Babylon
Show me slowly
what I only know the limits of
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the wedding now,
dance me on and on
Dance me very tenderly
and dance me very long
We're both of us beneath our love,
we're both of us above
Dance me
to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the children who are asking to be born
Dance me through the curtains
that our kisses have outworn
Raise a tent of shelter now,
though every thread is torn
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic
till I'm gathered safely in
Touch me with your naked hand
or touch me with your glove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me
to the end of love
