Restarts happen on Walls 4 and 8 after 16 counts. On these walls, the lyrics will consist only of La-La-La, so use that as your cue that your restart is about to happen.

Optional Variation: On walls 3, 7, 10, and 11 we have replaced counts 9-12 with an optional rolling vine. These walls always happen on the chorus, so use the words “Tears Will Dry” as your cue to do a rolling vine. For example, if you have just shuffled back LRL facing 12:00, the optional counts would be as follows:

9Turn ½ right (6:00) stepping R forward

10Turn ½ right (12:00) stepping L back

11Turn ¼ right (3:00) stepping R to Right Side

12Touch L next to R

Dance will end at the end of Wall 12 facing 12:00.
