It used to be so natural, dancing. Because the music defined you and the heart was in step. Then it leaves you. Or does it? Saturday night changes and your body forgets the old compliance. You’re not part of it any more and your feet hesitate and your arms stay close to your sides. It’s there somewhere, the easy rhythm from other rooms and other occasions, and you’re half convinced it will soon come back. It’s not the moves – the moves are there – but your connection to the music has become nostalgic, so the body is responding not to a discovery but to an old, dear echo.
