One afternoon I came to hear You sing a soft song into my ear Who would have thought quite by chance We might engage in a loving dance? Coming together, coming apart Lost in diversions, dancing stars Caught in the quiet, off on our own Coming together, standing alone Are you afraid? I'm not afraid What about you, what about me? Two years from now where will we be? Each of us gone our separate ways Lost in a headlong pa**age of days Maybe, we might give love a try Extending the moment before goodbye And for a gentle moment in time We'll take what pleasure people can find Are you afraid? I'm not afraid
What is for real, what is false? All of us seem to be caught in a waltz Turning around, turning again When will the dancing ever end? As for us, you and me Our eyes are open, we can see Both of us know where we've been Why must we both go dancing again? Come join the dancing, come join the waltz Don't look too closely at my faults Why can't I die here in your arms? Safe from the night and safe from the dawn Back to the nothing that had no name Back to the nowhere from where I came Don't worry of me, I know what I am Where I'm goin' and where I've been I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid No, I'm not afraid
