Summary: A playful fictional dance-floor moment: mismatched shoes bring a blush, shared humor and the courage to join in. The speaker and encounter are imaginative, not a report of private events.
I left the house in such a rush tonight,
One shoe was brown; the other shoe was white.
I stood outside, my cheeks a little red,
Then heard the bass and raised my drooping head.
Wrong shoes, right night,
I came to dance, not get it right.
Two odd feet beneath the light,
Wrong shoes, right night.
I tried to hide them underneath my chair;
You showed your mismatched socks without a care.
I missed a beat, then laughed and found my stride;
Those different shoes were dancing side by side.
Wrong shoes, right night,
I came to dance, not get it right.
Two odd feet beneath the light,
Wrong shoes, right night.
