If I could, I would with all my might
take away all the devilish pain
that's taken place tonight,
and any other night before,
that made you feel this alone
and took away your free spirited dance.
When all that you feel is pain,
I know it is easy to feel bitterly alone.
But think instead of the before,
not the after, and tonight
give into the good vibrations that make you want to dance
so that it possibly might
for some fleeting moments take away your pain.
Though you feel your heart colder than before,
like all the other parts of you have left your heart alone,
focus not on the hurt of tonight,
but on the hope tomorrow brings, that it might
bring forth a dance.
It takes two to dance,
but now I see on your face the pain
caused by the full moon hanging in the stars tonight
and by your partner leaving you stranded alone
on the dance floor. This one might
hurt a little worse than the one before.
If the rendez-vous conspires tonight,
the mangled, heart-stopping dance
driven by nights of constant pain,
it will end with each one still just as alone
and just as monster-like as the night before.
I don't doubt you'll combat with all your might
and give every ounce of your left over being to tonight,
to the chance of a better sleep than before.
Someday, someone will take away all your pain
so that you will not be afraid or feel alone,
and so that you might
in this blissful slumber, happily dance.
For it is in this dance that you no longer feel the pain
that you've felt in nights before. It is on your pillow tonight
that you might rest your head and be freed from being alone.
