CASSIE
Give me somebody to dance for. Give me somebody to show.
Let me wake up in the morning to find I have somewhere exciting to go.
To have something that I can believe in.
To have someone to be
Use me.
Choose me.
God, I'm a dancer, a dancer dances!
Give me somebody to dance with. Give me a place to fit in.
Help me return to the world of the living by showing me how to begin.
Play me the music.
Give me a chance to come through.
All I ever needed was the music, and the mirror, and the chance to dance for you.
Give me a job and you instantly get me involved.
If you give me a job then the rest of the crap wil get solved.
Put me to work, you would think that by now I'm allowed.
I'll do you proud!
Throw me a rope to grab onto. Help me to prove that I'm strong.
Give me the chance to look forward to saying', "Hey, listen, they're playing my song."
Play me the music.
Give me the chance to come through.
All I ever needed was the music, and the mirror, and the chance to dance.
(Dance)
Play me the music. Play me the music. Play me the music.
Give me the chance to come through.
All I ever needed was the music, and the mirror, and the chance to dance
