My favorite song... by any band. I absolutely love these lyrics :

"Will ya dance with me now, heaven's child" sang the clown, "We've nothing to lose but your wings and my frown"

It is just so cool. It always seemed to me like he's saying "Will you dance with me, heaven's child? The worst thing that can happen is you'll become mortal and I'll stop being unhappy."

The entire song is absolutely beautiful, but those two lines are my favorite. =)
