Shadow Feet and Danced

Can you remember that day in September?
The weather was dry and you began to cry  
And I gave you my sweater
 
The Justice of The Peace kept his warm seat  
Then he began to speak in legalese  
And we shook our knees
 
How we danced that night beneath the stars  
Like yard birds in your Mom's backyard  
And the neighbors laughed  
 
Taking my hand and following me  
Listening to me as I recant, "I love you so"  
And then we chant our revelry    
 
The years have passed but memories remain  
Oh how I remember dancing like yard birds
As I touch your photograph
 
So, sleep now, my "sweet humdinger"  
And remember that day in September
When you wore shadow feet and danced  

And I gave you my sweater
Written by adagio
