Ballerina

It seems you finally had to choose

I guess there was no other way

Between my love and satin shoes

I knew the words you'd have to say

 

It all began so long ago

That the memory's hardly clear

But when I see you dance I know

Half your love I'll always share

 

Ballerina when you dance there's music

Colored lights illuminate your movement

Crowded halls anticipate your gentle smile

 

Ballerina from the first I knew that

You would always have to dance I knew that

There would surely come a day when you would go

Baby I know

 

Dance for me, I beg of you, dance for me

Dance for me, ballerina, dance for me

 

Ballerina when you dance there's music

Colored lights illuminate your movement

Crowded halls anticipate your gentle smile
