I was reading the lyrics to this song. And it has to be one of the painful lyrics I have read by Prince. There is just something about the lyrics that call out to me. It is just heart wrenching. Anyone else love this song?

it's a really pretty song.

certainly better than some of the stuff on musicology.

The Dance

I don't wanna give U my love
Cuz I don't wanna lose my mind
I don't wanna give U my love
Cuz if I do it's gonna be the last time

I never want 2 feel this way again
If I can't be your lover, I don't wanna be your friend, no
I don't wanna be friends, no

I don't wanna hold your hand (I don't wanna hold your hand)
Uh uh, cuz I just wanna follow U everywhere, sho'nuff
I don't wanna see U dance, no, no (No)
I don't even really want 2 take the chance (Cuz I don't even...)
Of fallin' in love with U baby

Cuz if U ever said beautiful words 2 me
If I wanna be your fantasy, yes
I wanna dance, yes

Ooh, baby
I don't wanna give U my love

I don't wanna go 2 fast
Cuz if I do U just might stay (Will U stay with me, baby?)
U just might stay
I guess I have a lonely dance (Lonely dance)
The longer that I feel this way (The longer that I feel this way)
And I never want 2 feel this way again (I never wanna feel)
If I can't be your lover
I don't wanna be your friend (I can't be just friends)
No {repeated}
I don't wanna be friends, no
No {repeated}
I just want this 2 end
My my my... baby, oh yeah

I don't wanna give U my love (I don't wanna give U my love)
Cuz I don't wanna lose my mind (Just might lose, lose, lose my mind)

Go home, baby
U know U can't handle this

It's on "The Chocolate Invasion". The album is a download off the NPGMC website. You don;t have to be a member to access the Musicology Download Store and you can buy it but it'll cost you a little more if you aren't a member.

The Dance is a kickass song. The music is beautiful and the lyrics are kinda haunting to me. I love Musicology but I wish it was on there.

I made a Musicology Special Edition with all of the virtual B-sides incorporated into the album. Sounds good with all of the songs together.

My favorite song in 2004. LOVE IT!!!!!
