DANCING

Dancing in her yellow dress
As music swirled in the air,
Laughing girl with smiling face,
Ribbon in her hair.

So long ago, this memory
Still envisioned in my mind;
Safe from a world of care,
Leaving any pain behind.

I shall remember her with love
As little girls grow up and go
Away from a mother's embrace;
Dancing, don't you know?

We cannot hold them close forever,
Safe from others' charms;
They grow up and dance away
Into someone else's arms.
