Started out with a question I was flattered
She didn't dance at all, would I dance with her
She tore herself apart how could I say no
Wasn't one for self esteem but check her halo
She's never been one to rely on others
She needs a friend, not a lover
Keep this feeling close
But it’s gonna slip away
Never forget the feeling that I felt with her
The grip of her fingers on the back of my hand tell me
She deserves more
The whole night I felt awkward should I be there
She said this was a big mistake she shouldn't either
One step on the dance floor I was taken
I've never seen an angel dance but where had I been
Never been one to rely on others
She needs a friend, not a lover
Keep this feeling close
But it’s gonna slip away
Never forget the feeling that I felt with her
The grip of her fingers on the back of my hand tells me
She deserves more
I got a sense of her world
The curves of her smile draw me close but I can’t
She deserves more
Started out with a question I was flattered
She didn't dance at all, would I dance with her
She tore herself apart how could I say no
Wasn't one for self esteem but check her halo
She's never been one to rely on others
She needs a friend, not a lover
Keep this feeling close
But it’s gonna slip away
Never forget the feeling that I felt with her
The grip of her fingers on the back of my hand tell me
She deserves more
The whole night I felt awkward should I be there
She said this was a big mistake she shouldn't either
One step on the dance floor I was taken
I've never seen an angel dance but where had I been
Never been one to rely on others
She needs a friend, not a lover
Keep this feeling close
But it’s gonna slip away
Never forget the feeling that I felt with her
The grip of her fingers on the back of my hand tells me
She deserves more
I got a sense of her world
The curves of her smile draw me close but I can’t
She deserves more

about
Justin James San Diego, California
A professional windsurfer in his teen years, Justin was attacked by a tiger shark off the coast of South America when he was 20 years old, cutting major arteries, almost severing his foot, and leaving him with 250 stitches. This moment would prove to be a watershed in Justin's life when during a yearlong recovery his grandma gave him a guitar and his first song was born. ... more
