Ballerina lyrics

Dance, ballerina, dance

And do your pirouette

in rhythm with your aching heart.

Dance, ballerina, dance

You mustn’t once forget

a 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 its turn,

You wanted fame instead,

I guess that’s your concern, we live and learn.

And 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

As round and round you go,

So, ballerina, dance,

Dance, dance!
