I wish I didn’t have to let go
Of this beautiful dress that fits me so well
It makes me smile as I fall with it to the ground
I wish on the stars
I want to take it out
Dance by candlelight and watch it flow
Twirl and make it grow
The whole night through
But this dress isn't mine to hold on to
I have to let this lovely dress go
I worry this dress will be buried below
I want it to shine
I want it to glow
I must confess
I love this dress
I wish I didn’t have to let it go

I walk the white lines
I wait patiently to be called
By those in white who walk the halls
Tapping my feet, looking around
Stretching and reading
Don't touch anything
Sitting back down and twiddling my thumbs
Waiting and waiting
For whatever is next to come
Why do I feel so alone
There’s always someone else
Waiting outside and in the same hall
We are one.
