    <content>&lt;p&gt;messages in the songs she sings,
amongst a mess of scattered stanzas
  she dances 
  
  and I listen for her heart
  in these lyrics.
  
sometimes she doesn&amp;#8217;t have the skill
to tell me what she means,
  and she dances
  
  yes she leaves me love notes in
  someone else&amp;#8217;s words
  
I imagine what she means to say,
eyes closed and carried away by her songs,
  I&amp;#8217;m dancing
  
  and I listen for her heart;
  let myself dream.&lt;/p&gt;</content>
