two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
You might wake up one morning
To the sound of something moving past your window in the wind

The men star by the right and turn it one time
Left allemande that corner and a right & left grand
Don't be concerned, it will not harm you
Swing the girl and promenade go moving 'round the ring
Across my dreams, with nets of wonder
I chased the bright elusive butterfly of love


FIGURE    Basic - SSD Week 5, no progression

The heads (sides) promenade half way around, now
Lead right, veer left, couples circulate
Bend the line and all join hands, circle left
Allemande left and right & left grand
Don't be concerned, it will not harm you
Swing the partner there and promenade the ring
Across my dreams, with nets of wonder
I chased the bright elusive butterfly of love


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
You might have heard my footsteps
Echo softly in the distance through the canyons of your mind

Men star right and turn it one time
Left allemande the corner, weave the line
Don't be concerned, it will not harm you
Swing the girl and promenade go moving 'round the ring
Across my dreams, with nets of wonder
I chased the bright elusive butterfly of love


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
You might have seen me running
Through the long abandoned ruins of the dreams you left behind

The men star by the right and turn it one time
Left allemande that corner and a right & left grand
Don't be concerned, it will not harm you
Swing the girl and promenade go moving 'round the ring
Across my dreams, with nets of wonder
I chased the bright elusive butterfly of love


TAG

Swing her
I chased the bright elusive butterfly of love
