Oh I had that dream again , I didn't want it to end , I confess you were with me again , in dancing shoes and that sequinned dress , in my best tuxedo and patent black leather shoes , I tapped you on the shoulder and asked to dance with you. Dancing the American smooth with you was just like dancing on air, you, you were my Ginger, and I, I was your Astaire. You , said you'd had your eyes on me , you waited so patiently, you thought i'd never ask, we stepped out on that ballroom floor , I couldn't ask for more , and I prayed it would last. Oh and the band played our favourite song , you remember the one , about the moonlight above, and we , we just kept dancing along, wrapped in each others arms, falling in love. Dancing the American smooth with you was just like dancing on air, you, you were my Ginger, and I, I was your Astaire. Lost in the music we danced the night away , until the lights on the dance floor started to fade , I pulled you closer to steal a last kiss , but a siren outside put an end to all this. And oh , I was back home again , in bed all alone again , still missing you so, but tonight i'll have that dream again , one day it may never end I won't let go. Cause dancing the American smooth with you was just like dancing on air, you, you were my Ginger, and I, I was your Astaire. Dancing the American smooth with you both of us dancing on air, again you'll be my Ginger, and I, I'll be your Astaire.

You know it s gonna be a good year 2024... No matter what....as long as Frank is uploading is lovely songs....so appreciated by all of us Frank....thank you❤❤

These lyrics are so wonderful I can’t fathom how you come up with such heartfelt and meaningful lyrics.

I really love how every original song of yours sounds like a story to me, and how I can not only imagine it but also feel all the emotions by listening to singing it.

Such CHILLS - for both the incredible lyrics and a melody/picking to match… Frank, you are such A GIFT. ❤

My friend, this is certainly one of your best songs. Lyric/melody blend is virtually perfect. Great picking too!

the passion you put into singing is so heartwarming, and we don't see it as much as we used to so i cherish it even more. i love the references to fred astaire, ginger, and just this song is so beautiful and heartwarming. thank you, truly, for writing this, for singing this, for showing us this. all of your songs are absolutely gorgeous, and they make me so happy to listen to. so thank you, truly.

This is so heartwarming, such an incredible song. So powerful, so emotional. I ended up closing my eyes and I could really picture a story in my head, I guess like a mini movie where this was the song playing, and of course the story followed the lyrics. Honestly, it's so beautiful.

Frank, your voice is so soothing and beautiful

Im speechless🤗💖cant find the right words to express what i am feeling while listening to you sing this beautiful song with that awesome melody in your guitar☺️

Thank you for making my morning so beautiful

Greetings from Chile, Frank. Love your work!

I had a beautiful 4min study break. Such a masterpiece to me❤ . Thanks Frank , love u so much

Amazing song Frank..It made me remember my late wife, IVY. She loved to slow dance. Thank you, my friend,i needed this more than you know. Much Love from Ohio ❤😊. Hope Marshall is getting along with his new friends,give him a good boy from me.

We must protect this man at all costs.

Frank, this song is so beautiful!!🥺 What moving lyrics! What a perfect melody! Sometimes I like to compose some songs, but I've never achieved something as exciting as this song.

Another beautiful one! Thank you Frank for making our days brighter. Hope you are well

Beautiful song♥️ I’m so grateful for Your music🙏🏽

This song makes me weep the Nile. As a nurse, I've been privileged to be in the presence of this caliber of love as souls part ways, and they can no longer breathe together. I've never been so touched by a song as this one. She hears it every time it's strummed into the ethers, beautiful man.

K Bella!! How beautiful how true is your love. Absolutely gorgeous. Also, above left-hand corner, bottom mirror, your little kitty cat, listening to you sing. Just special.🎉❤❤❤

Hello Mr Watkinson! You do great covers! Your voice is so measured and sensual, you immediately plunge into a cozy home. It’s a pity that the songs of your composition have so few views, they are worth talking about! Thank you for your performance! We look forward to your new videos! Health and happiness to you! *Sorry for any spelling errors, I am not an English speaking person

That dream again , I didn’t want it to end , this is my safe place
