It's Always Brightest Before the Dawn

by Mary Naylor

Come dance with me,

Come Dance with me,

Let's twirl and laugh for the world to see!

This night of night,

Please hold me tight.

Dancing across the sky, on this star-swept night!

As the bright dawn breaks,

My heart leaps and quakes,

For you'll be gone when I awake!

Adieu, adieu, my dear,

But first hold me near,

For nothing can stop the dawn I fear!

Goodbye, My love,

I see the sun above,

Just one more kiss, Au revoir, Beloved!
