dance with me

jesse wrote the best song he has ever written tonight, aside from the not-to-be-mentioned song from the montana sessions. its tenitively called 'dance with me'. this song breaks my heart. if you know me, you will understand. here are the lyrics, but keep it on the dl, jesse doesn't know im putting on here. its his fault for leaving the lyrics on the porch...

at the mouth
of the river
by the holler
watching you shiver
its not cold
its in your head
dance with me

the lantern
burning slow
the oil
fuels the glow
don't be a fool
its in your head
dance with me

the shuffle
the awkward shuffle
won't let you down
be at peace
little darlin
we'll get around

if its winter
you'll make it spring
if it rains
you'll make it sing
a change may come
its in your head
dance with me

and if the night
gives way to dawn
and your smile
becomes a yawn
don't go to sleep
its in your head
dance with me

don't go to sleep
its in your head
dance with me

i can't wait for him to record this because it is absolutely beautiful. total mix tape material
i've already got the list going in my head...
