What If Tonight

This is a song I wrote in 2011. The idea for the song was about meeting the one you love in an outing. Whether that outing is spicing up your current relationship or meeting an old flame again after years with no communication, only to find that there is a flame still burning that suddenly sparked after what starts out as an innocent dance. I had just ended a relationship of eight years and had a conversation of “hypothetical situations”  that if things came back around and we reconnected… What if…

I don’t know just what to say so I’ll write it down in a lyrical way.

The feelings in this song have always belonged, lost in the arms of the one holding my heart.

Now that I’m back around it’s bringing me out, while the fire that died is being revived, I slip away into temptations embrace.

What if you were mine and we had more than the dance floor tonight?

What if we didn’t hide behind the moments that could change our lives?

What if we embraced this time and turned it into an endless night?

What if I was yours, what if forever starts tonight?

The good, the bad, still the best I have had.

In the dark of the night, you pull me into you tight as the flashing lights make it easy to hide until your finger tips caress my hips.

Defined by the rise of unexpected surprise, fantasy says I’m yours tonight.. Not just for tonight.

What if you were mine and we had more than the dance floor tonight?

What if we didn’t hide behind the moments that could change our lives?

What if we embraced this time and turned it into an endless night?

I’m being swept away with thoughts of what if forever began tonight?

Dancing with you makes everything right, when your eyes dance into mine.

Reaching my soul with the touch of your lips, a kiss, your kiss.
