Don’t be afraid to love, to cry, to reconcile: It’s only fair that we all have pain Wait for my smile and behind my eyes you’ll see a dancing flame and an open mind and the space that I hold for you can hold everything we’re going through Will you meet me there? You know where tenderly My fury shines like wet tears on sunny days. I’m fighting for the control I lost I haven’t found the unbounding forgiveness within myself I need everyday There’s a way to live wildly while restricted by the force of gravity I can fall with you break in two break away You see the lightning in my eyes and so I don’t need to disguise that I need to dance free to leap, to fall, to feel, to flee I feel you shelter me take care of your joyous ones if you can take care of your angry ones: feed them kindness and show them love is free With a heart to hold the sea and a mind to see the world like a child I can offer you advice: just be nice; for we all run out of time Will you dance with me? Will you guide me through the crowded floor? I will dance with you
