Dance me to your beauty
With a burning violin,
Dance me through the panic
Till I'm gathered safely in,
Lift me like an olive branch
And be my homeward dove,
Dance me to the end of love,
Dance me to the end of love
Oh let me see your beauty
When the witnesses are gone,
Let me feel you moving
Like they do in Babylon,
Show me slowly
What I only know the limits of,
Dance me to the end of love,
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the wedding now,
Dance me on and on,
Dance me very tenderly
And dance me very long,
We're both of us beneath our love,
We're both of us above,
Dance me to the end of love,
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the children
Who are asking to be born,
Dance me through the curtains
That our kisses have out worn,
Raise a tent of shelter now,
Though every thread is torn,
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to your beauty
With a burning violin,
Dance me through the panic
Till I'm gathered safely in,
Lift me like an olive branch
And be my homeward dove,
Dance me to the end of love,
Dance me to the end of love,
Dance me to the end of love
