Dancing

Summary: Just another song-ficcy type piece I wrote in about five minutes. Spike on how he feels about Buffy.

Disclaimers: The song is "Lakini's Juice' by Live, and I don't own the BtVS characters either.

***************

It was an evening I shared with the sun

To find out where we belonged

From the earliest days

We were dancing in the shadows

Too true. We've been dancing since the day we met, and it's always been in the shadows. You're the closest I've come to the sun since I was turned, and you're all I need. I know where I belong. I belong with you.

More wine

Cause I got to have it

More skin

Cause I got to eat it

I get drunk on your scent, I drink it in, it's all I need. Who needs blood when you fill every inch of me?

Inside the outside

By the river used to be so calm

Used to be so sane

Used to be sane. That's a relative term. I've never been a sane man when it comes to love. Even when I was alive. In love with a girl that despised me. Then there was Dru, my princess that made me what I am today. She delivered me from mediocrity, saved me from myself. But she was definitely someone who snapped sanity's thread a long time ago. I loved her, I did.

I rushed the ladies room

Took the water from the toilet

Washed her feet and blessed her name

Now I find I've done the full circle. I'm in love with another woman that hates me. This is where I've really lost it. I'm in love with the woman who kills my kind for a living. I'm in love with a woman I've tried to kill on many separate occasions, and now I'll do anything for her. If Dru delivered me from mediocrity, then Buffy's lifted me from the darkness I was consumed in.

More peace

Such a dirty habit

Peace is boring. I'm someone who needs excitement, and I know she does too. She denies it, denies me, but we're so right for each other. Black and white, darkness and light. I'm exactly what she needs.

Slow down

You're too afraid

Let me ride

Let me ride

Let me ride

She's afraid. I'm a vampire. For her, it's been there, done that. But she'll come, eventually. She's just so afraid of love, she's been burnt to many times. I won't do that to her. I won't hurt her. All I want to do is dance.

It was an evening I shared with the sun

To find out where we belonged

From the earliest days

We were dancing in the shadows

It's all we've ever done.

Slow down

You're too afraid

Let me ride

Let me ride

Let me ride
