I tapped on your door To get your attention And you opened it partially I tiptoed in You started humming to me Beautiful music And my steps became more sure Less trepidation as they hit the floor And your wings stretched, your music, it roared My feet twirled, seeing you, I soared. But you started beating the air Way too fast My legs started shaking But I was still trying to dance But I slipped and fell On the marble where I'd used to fly I stretched my hand to you for help But all the music had died You'd walked out of the door I was left locked in Bet you hadn't seen me dance To whatever music you used to bring If you'd just gazed once I'd have have danced to anything. I would've danced for you, hon But you forgot to sing

Sing
I tapped on your door To get your attention And you opened it partially I tiptoed in You started humming to me Beautiful music And my steps became more sure Less trepidation as they hit the floor And your wings stretched, your music, it roared My feet twirled, seeing you, I soared. But you started beating the air Way too fast My legs started shaking But I was still trying to dance But I slipped and fell On the marble where I'd used to fly I stretched my hand to you for help But all the music had died You'd walked out of the door I was left locked in Bet you hadn't seen me dance To whatever music you used to bring If you'd just gazed once I'd have have danced to anything. I would've danced for you, hon But you forgot to sing
