Viennese Waltz/ Lyrical dance
To John Mayor's "Come Back to Bed"

I have no life. But I finally finished it. I don't know why someone would want to do this dance, but I don't have the partner nor the skill to do what I envision... So It's just for fun...

/The opening of the song has the couple lying together; she has her head on his chest curled against his side. His arm is flat across on the floor with palm up/

Still is the life

/She pushes off his chest and rolls herself down his arm, her neck resting against it the whole time/

Of your room

/They both sit up at the same time, then use their knees to push off the ground and stand on “Room”/

When you're not inside

/Both fan-kick (windmill) /

And all of your things

/Guy walks up to girl and reaches out his hand to touch her shoulder, but she moves her shoulder at the last second and he falls forward to do a front roll and land sitting./

Tell the sweetest story line

/The girl stomp-hops away (On “Tells the sweet-est” then scoops her arms up in the air at “storyline”/

Your tears on these sheets

/She goes to stop past him but on “Sheets” he wraps his arms around her waist, kneeling/

When your footsteps are down the hall

/He lifts her up and holds her up so both their arms are extended- hers are on his shoulders/

So tell me what I did

/They swing her body to the side so he can catch her bridal style/

I can't find where the moment went wrong at all

/He cradles her with a two step to the music swaying to the beat then realizes she is not impressed and lets her down/

You can be mad in the morning

/They both do a double pirouette and they sweep their legs out when they land it. She extends her arm in an arch and he does the same/

I'll take back what I said

/The girl touches her chest and pushes it outwards as the guy pulls his hands into his chest, both Viennese dancing away fro each other. Going through the six steps/

Just don't leave me alone here

/Guy takes her hand and spins her out the opposite side/

It's cold, baby

/They both stop abruptly and wrap their arms around themselves/

Come back to bed

/They walk towards each other and at the last second they go to opposite sides, arms still wrapped around chest/

Come back to bed

/They spin around each other and then they are facing opposite directions side by side. He puts his arm across her hips to the one furthest and she does as well/

Come back to bed

/They slowly circle/

Come back to bed

/They let go and get in position for the next verse/

What will this fix

/On the lyrics “What. Will. This” He steps towards her and on “fix” he should be close enough to grab her elbows from behind her and they curl inwards. During the music after she steps out of his embrace and turns towards him/

You know you're not a quick forgive

/Guy goes on one knee and holds out a hand for the girl. She takes it but then steps on and over his knee on “quick forgive”/

And I won't sleep through this

/They both grab their heads and shake them with “And I won’t sleep through” Then they ‘sunrise’ with their arms and crouch over at their sides where the arm extensions stop./

I survive on the breath

/The guy has run over as the girl uncurls and grabs her face. She puts the heel of her hands into her eyes in aggravation and dips on “breath”, He catches her/

You are finished with

/They come up, she puts her knee on his shoulder and her wraps his arm around her other leg, that is straight down from his chest, she has her hands on his shoulders for support. She hops down and he assists her right in time for chorus/

You can be mad in the morning

/Both create fists and bang them against imaginary wall in air twice before throwing the fist to the side and spinning with the momentum. Two box steps facing the way they spun (girl left boy right)/

I'll take back what I said

/Guy holds hand over mouth then extends it towards the girl, she then turns away. Two box steps facing same way/

Just don't leave me alone here

/Guy grabs girl under arms and windmill with her legs/

It's cold baby

/Wraps his arms around her in a back-to-front hug and then into a back-to-front left foot close change /

Come back to bed

/Close change continues and with a twirl at the end, and then it becomes a front-to-front close change at the end of the musical interlude. Last beat is when the twirl happens/

Come back to bed

/Front-to-front close change/

Come back to bed

/Continues/

Bridge Guitar Solo

/She realizes she is working with him and pushes him away they then they dance around each other, one in a reverse box step and the other in a forwards except counts are one for one and done much slower. Guy steps forward with right foot and woman with left so they just miss each other ect…They should be done by the third guitar rift /

/The guy brings the girl in and foreheads touch lightly, she spins her forehead away so she is a few steps in front of him she then turns around towards him and points her finger at him, knowing he was reaching his arms out to hug her again. /

/She holds out her arm invitingly and then drags her other arm across her chest and extends out to the other side. He follows it behind her, and then grabs her wrist and her elbow bends to cradle his head/

/When the guitar changes, he slides back on one knee and she circles her leg up onto his shoulder and he lifts her. Spin around twice with her dipped back, leg over shoulder and guys arms around her waist/

/He pulls her up back towards him so she can get her leg down and then they both turn away from each other when the music picks up again. He is facing the back and puts his arms in 90 degrees so his shoulder to elbow are one long line and his hands grasp under her arms that are held out straight. He picks her up with her leaning against his back- one knee drawn up. Guy must be careful not to hunch over/

/They land and then the guy almost chases the girl hands touching and alternating with body moving with the hands in a two step until the chorus there should be about four/

You can be mad in the morning

/Girl bangs her first against his chest on "mad" then it slides down/

Or the afternoon instead

/They separate and 'airplane' to the right, then both one-leg windmill/fan using right leg/

But don't leave me

/Girl backs up a bit/

98 and 6 degrees of separation

/She runs towards him and he 'clothes-hangers' her around her middle. Spin twice her folded around his arm/

From you baby

/He puts her down and she spins out in a chain /

Come back to bed

/he spins her back in and they are facing each other on “bed”/

Come back to bed

/She plants her hands on his hips, careful to keep her arms straight and his circle around her waist and are kept straight as well. The lift should gain enough momentum so that her legs eng up off the ground. One should be straight back and the other slightly angles down /

Come back to bed

/The circle lift comes to a close /

Why don’t you come back to bed?

/They hold hands as if finally going to go lie down and sleep and the girl lies down on her side, last second the guy pushes her flat and crawls on top/

Don't hold your love over my head

/Girl pushes guy off and uses momentum to spin over top of him and stand up. She dusts her knees off then goes to take a step away/

Don't hold your love over my head

/Guy grabs her foot and she leans forward, looking like she is falling. Her hands hit the ground with her leg still being held out straight by the guy. She pulls herself away and lands on her knees/

Don't hold your love over my head

/Both stand and she grabs his arm then 'trips' him around his knee and helps him to the ground/

Don't hold your love over my head

/She sits against his shoulder and leans backwards. He holds the back of her head and then suddenly pushes her back over his shoulder/

Don't hold your love over my head

/She stumbles forward and spins around angrily, but he looks all dejected sitting there so she rolls her eyes, walks up, grabs his shoulder and pushes him back so he's lying on "head"/

Don't hold your love over my-

/She lies down and falls asleep on his chest and he wraps an arm around her/
