  • I want to dance, at some point in the future, with someone to Frankie by Bruce Springsteen (a live version can be found as the 7ᵗʰ song on the music player at the bottom of the page; not as smooth as the first version, but it'll do).

    Don't need anyone else around, or can just be in one of each others rooms, for all I care. I want to just goof off with them, slowly sway with them, pull them close just to whisper into their ear

    Walk softly tonight, little stranger…
    Into the shadows where lovers go
    Talk softly to me…little angel
    Whisper your     secrets…so soft and low
    Walk softly tonight, little stranger
    Into the shadows where the lovers go
    Talk softly to me, little angel
    Whisper your secrets so soft and low…
    Talk softly tonight, little angel…
    Here in the shadows where…lovers go
    Talk softly to me, little stranger
    Whisper your secrets, baby, soft and low
    Talk softly to me…
    Talk softly to me…
    Talk softly to me…
    Talk softly to me…

    until the voice goes hoarse or the words just fade away. I just want that moment.

     

     

    Dark weekends in the sun, out on Chelsea Row
    Descending the stairs, ah, Frankie my love[…]
    We'll dance round this dirty town
    'Til the night is all done

    Let all the finer things sleep alone tonight
    Let all the minor kings – lose – their – thrones – tonight

    Don't worry about me baby, I'll be alright…
    -Bruce Springsteen
