Ballerina

Dance, ballerina, dance

And do your pirouette in rhythm with your aching heart

Dance, ballerina, dance

You mustn't once forget, the dancer has to dance the part

Whirl, ballerina, whirl

And just ignore the chair that's empty in the second row

This is your moment, girl

Although he's not out there applauding as you steal the show

Once you said his love must wait it's turn

You wanted fame instead, I guess that's your concern

We live and learn

Now love is gone, ballerina, gone

So on with your career, you can't afford a backward glance

Dance on and on and on

A thousand people here have come to see the show

Round and round you go, ballerina dance

Dance, dance

Once you said oh his love must wait it's turn

You wanted fame instead, I guess that's your concern

We live and learn

Oh love is gone, ballerina, gone

On with your career, you can't afford a backward glance

Dance on and on and on

A thousand people here have come to see the show

Round and round you go, ballerina dance

Ooh, dance
