Ballerina Songtext
von Rod MacDonald

Ballerina Songtext

Used to know a ballerina
She could dance from her head to her toes
She came to me and said i could love you long
Sometimes we whispered each other′s names out low

She said i could never be tied to being anybody's fool
And we would linger in each other′s arms
In the evening when the nights got cool

She turned from me to another man
Who said devoted she must be
And the price he paid for her accepting that
Was to follow every order she would speak
Soon he was dancing to her every line
Sampled every song and every taste
He would tell her how she danced so well
But he would do the dancing in her place


Ballerina why don't you dance with me
Ballerina darling can't you see
The moon and the stars are moving over to make room for you to shine
You were so beautiful when you were all alive

I wished her well and they went off to marry
They moved to some pleasant town
I hear he′s making a living doing tax accounts
She dances when the weekends come around
I saw the ballerina in a dream last night
A butterfly who folded up her wings
Crying for the beauty she′d left behind
She was crying for so many things

Yes i knew a ballerina
Everybody said she seemed to fly
And when the music stopped she reached for somebody
Who'd keep on telling her those lies
Ballerinas come and dancers go
I think about her every now and then
And i will dance again with you i know
But i don′t need no ballerina again
