We Were a Slow Dance in a Fast Car

A cycle of poems «You Taught My Hands How to Pray on Your Body»

The world was spinning way too fast, 
But in your arms, I found my past. 

Time slipped away, but we held on tight, 
Two hearts moving slow in the fading light. 

We were a slow dance in a fast car, 
A quiet flame that burned from afar. 
In the rush of life, we found our star, 
Holding on close, no matter how far. 

City lights blurred as we drove along, 
Your hand in mine, where I belong. 
The noise outside couldn’t drown our song, 
In every beat, we grew strong. 

Time slipped away, but we held on tight, 
Two hearts moving slow in the fading light. 

We were a slow dance in a fast car, 
A quiet flame that burned from afar. 
In the rush of life, we found our star, 
Holding on close, no matter how far. 

Though the world raced by in a blur of sound, 
Our love was steady, safe and sound. 
No need to hurry, no need to run, 
With you beside me, we’re never undone. 

We were a slow dance in a fast car, 
A quiet flame that burned from afar. 
In the rush of life, we found our star, 
Holding on close, no matter how far. 

Slow dance forever in a fast car’s light, 
With you, my love, everything’s right.
