[Verse 1]
When two dancers share the stage tonight
There's a special way to write it right
Curved lines connecting staff to staff
Show relationships in their dance path
From gentle touch to lifting high
These bows tell us the how and why

[Chorus]
Relationship bows curve between the lines
Grasping, supporting, touching, carrying signs
Near and approaching, five ways they connect
Curved lines show dancers' effects
Hold tight, lift up, reach out, stay close
These are the moves that matter most

[Verse 2]
Grasping means they hold on tight
Hands together through the night
Supporting shows one bears the weight
When partner leans, they compensate
The curved line tells us who does what
In every lift and spinning spot

[Chorus]
Relationship bows curve between the lines
Grasping, supporting, touching, carrying signs
Near and approaching, five ways they connect
Curved lines show dancers' effects
Hold tight, lift up, reach out, stay close
These are the moves that matter most

[Bridge]
Touching is brief, just a moment's grace
Carrying lifts them through the space
Near and approaching, no contact made
Just closeness in the dance parade
Five relationships, curved and clear
Making partnerships appear

[Chorus]
Relationship bows curve between the lines
Grasping, supporting, touching, carrying signs
Near and approaching, five ways they connect
Curved lines show dancers' effects
Hold tight, lift up, reach out, stay close
These are the moves that matter most

[Outro]
When you see that curved connection
It's more than simple direction
Two dancers moving as they should
Relationship bows make it understood
