The Music for Performances

Song Details from the album New Beginnings



Doug wrote this one a few years ago with Gabe Fraire.   The song actually picked up a Best Song award a couple of years ago at a West Coast Songwriter’s event.   It’s sort of a seductive lounge song that Julie does a great job with.  The seductive instrument you hear in there is the oboe played by Daniel Celidore.

Dance With Me

Lyrics:

Dance With Me
Dance with me, go ahead a take a chance with me
Leave ‘em all for a taste of sin
Chasing fast women, gambling never winning
Dance with me, go ahead and try romance with me
I want you now under my charm for my good and your harm
Tasting my sweets cradling my arm
Take a chance life’s a risk
And you need it, you need it you do
Forget the family, prison picket fence
They’ll get by just fine without you
All you’ve got to do is come to my arms and
Dance with me

Dance with me, go ahead a take a chance with me
Leave ‘em all for a taste of sin
Chasing fast women, gambling never winning
Take my hand let me come near
And whisper sweet nothings in your ear
Kiss my lips race my lonely heart
Lust above all 
Come to my dance and call
I’m reaching out and beckoning with my arms for you to
Dance with me
