Invent something new, and you'll set me a skipping:
I want a new figure to dance with my Dear!

It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance. It is the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance. It is the one who won't be taken who cannot seem to give. And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.
