When I Dance Like Krishna Dances.

If I danced like Krishna danced,

if I opened up my heart to chance,

what would happen if I danced like Krishna danced?

If his music took over me
and I danced with the joy
of a heart set free. 

Where would this abandon take me,

if I danced like Krishna danced?

If I danced with a joy that had no end.

If I danced with a joy
that could have me transcend.

What would be left of this little me, 

if that fear in me no longer had a plea?

If I danced and danced and danced,
body, mind and spirit
swept up in a cosmic trance. 

There might be nothing left of me, 

if I surrendered everything up to Thee. 

With no thoughts of what's in it for me,
this love might finally be free, 

as I merge back into Thee. 

I could throw away the key,

that has kept this heart, 

locked away from Thee. 

When I'm no longer scared of taking chances. 

When I disappear into those loving glances,

that's when I'll dance like Krishna dances, 

lost to one of our greatest romancers.
