May I Have This Dance - Meadowlark

In the ground, we bury

The seeds of our pear tree

And all the things we carried

Now we’re down to our bare feet

May I have this dance to make it up to you?

Can I say something crazy?

I love you

Give me both your hands to make it up to you

Let me spin and excite you

We are bound to inherit

The sins of our parents

And all the people we passed through

Now we’re down to the last two

May I have this dance to make it up to you

Can I say something crazy?

I love you

Give me both your hands to make it up to you

Let me spin and excite you

May I have this dance to make it up to you?

Can I say something crazy?

I love you

Give me one more chance

Give me one more chance

Give me one more

Let me spin and excite you

You’ve got your, your mother’s eyes

You’ve got your, your grandmother’s ring

You’ve got your, your daddy’s discernment

Girl you did your thing

You’ve got your, your mother’s eyes

You’ve got your, your grandmother’s ring

You’ve got your, your daddy’s discernment

Girl you did your thing
