Dance On The Breeze
- W Ross Campbell
​
It's the particular way you move your hands when you're talking to me
It's the magical glint in your blue eyes when you smile
It's your articulate mind & the way you look when you're in a book
It's the wonderful way that you let life happen
It's the affectionate touch of your hand on my arm of an evening
Your ephemeral glance & your quick wit which give me this feeling
Your elegant feet & the way they move when you're in a groove
It's the wonderful way that you let life happen
While we're making other plans
It's the wonderful way that you let life happen
​
(chor)
You're the reason I breathe.
You are the reason I can dance on the breeze
It's you who I want to please
You are the only reason I can dance on the breeze.
​
It's your rhythmical phrase & your straight-on gaze
when you're telling a joke
Your generous soul when you host your friends
Or when you give me a stroke
The way you accept certain things about me that I can't change
It's the wonderful way that you let life happen
The far away look that you get in your eye when you talk about Spain
Your lyrical heart and that Gypsy cry and your steel-trap brain
The musical note that you give your voice when you're having a laugh
It's your "doctor whistle" when you're by yourself, running a bath
(repeat chor)
An olive a day keeps the doctor away ---so you said to me
You taught me the Mediterranean way (That's where we'd like to be)
Life for me began anew when I met you
One ripe olive at a time
One ripe olive at a time
(repeat chor)
