The Red Shoes

	She move like the Diva do
	I said "I'd love to dance like you."
	She said "just take off my red shoes
	Put them on and your dream'll come true
	With no words, with no song
	You can dance a dream with your body on
	And this curve is your smile
	And this cross is your heart
	And this line is your path

		"whoo whoo"

	It's gonna be the way you always thought it would be
	But it's gonna be no illusion
	It's gonna be the way you always dreamt about it
	But it's gonna be really happening
	Really happening to ya
	Really happening to ya"

	The minute I put them on
	I knew I had done something wrong
	All her gifts for the dance had gone
	The red shoes, they can't stop
		"dancing"
	It can't stop
	It can't stop
	It can't stop
	It can't stop

		"whoo whoo"

	"It's gonna be the way you always thought it would be
	But it's gonna be no illusion
	It's gonna be the way you always dreamt about it
	But it's gonna be really happening"

		She gotta dance, she gotta dance
		And she can't stop 'till them shoes come off
		The shoes do, a kind of voodoo
		They're gonna make her dance 'till her legs fall off

	Feel your hair come tumbling down
	Feel your feet start kissing the ground
	Feel your arms are opening out
	And see your eyes are lifted to God

	I'm gonna dance the dream
	And make the dream come true
	I'm gonna dance the dream
	And make the dream come true

		She gotta dance, she gotta dance
	Yeah
		And she can't stop 'till them shoes come off
		And the shoes do, a kind of voodoo
		They're gonna make her dance 'till her legs fall off
		Call a doctor, call a priest
		They're gonna whip her up like a helicopter

	Really happening to ya
	Really happening to ya

	And with the shoes
	You gotta daaaance
	You gotta daaaance
	You gotta daaaance
	You gotta dance
	You gotta dance
	You gotta dance
