Dry Bones

Oh brittle dry bones
How you snap as you dance
Where lies your home
And why've you left that manse

Tell me you dry bones
Why you risk all for a simple dance
And what drove you from your home
Here away from long-forgotten manse

Why do you smile at my asking
Dry bones have you no answer
It is only to keep the dancing
That you've cast away your anchor

Well my dry bones
I fear that I cannot dance
And I've never much had a home
So I'm afraid I'll not take your chance
