I know you're so sad, so sad you can't cry, no, no, no, but I know you let go, although you can't remember why. You're lost, don't feel your straps coming loose. You're out in the hall, waltzing the blues. Now you're hiding somewhere, they won't find a bruise. You've been hurting too hard, those dancing shoes on your bed. I had a mama, she told me lies. She said true love don't lie. You touch that warm heart, and the smoke won't leave your eyes. You're tough, you're wild, but you can't refuse. Learning to walk in those dancing shoes. Now you're hurting somewhere, they won't find a bruise. Learning to walk in those dancing shoes.
