I remember how my emotions slurred.
As I stood on the Dance Floor-
I remember how I thought about it.
Until I couldn't take it anymore.
I remember thinking this was my time to shine.
Tonight was the night-
My whole life would change.
And everything would finally feel right.
I remember dancing...
Waiting for you to give me a glance-
Then ask me the question I needed you to ask:
"May I please have this dance?"
I remember crying.
At this one certain dance..
You never asked me that needed question.
Or even gave me that second glance.
Even though sometimes I may want to forget,
I will always hold that memory.
The event that broke my heart that night.
Yes, I will always remember...
How you didn't dance with me.
