Fading Beauty
She struts elegantly, among the crowd
the band opens, with a boisterous tune
I catch her eye, with an engaging seseur
As I slither and slide through, the packed aisles
I catch her eye again, as she smiles
I enter my ebulllition, to her steadfast frame
Hoping not to again, be burned by this infatuation game
We meet, as I approach her with vigor
she gazes at my scar above my eye
yet moves closer and closer to me
a slow tune is on
she whispers in my ear
dance
my alcoholic brain, nods with glee
simply don't believe she's jammin' with me
suddenly my drinks go through me
I use the resrtroom in a hurry
the waltz too short
upon my return
she did'nt wait for me
another faded beauty
such a cutey
another eve of destruction
a brief encounter of fantasy love
simply drifted away
a night life dove
simply flew away
another night life
faded love
