Ballerina Lyrics

Dance, bal - le - ri - na, dance,
And do your pir - ou - ette in rhy - thm with your ach - ing heart.
Dance, bal - le - ri - na, dance,
You mus - n't once for - get a dan - cer has to dance the part.
Whirl, bal - le - ri - na, whirl,
And just ig - nore the chair that's emp - ty in the se - cond row.
This is your mo - ment, girl,
Al - though he's not out there ap - plaud - ing as you steal the show.
Bridge:
Once you said, "His love must wait its turn."
You wan - ted fame in - stead; I guess that's your con - cern --
We live and learn.
And love is gone, bal - le - ri - na, gone,
So on with your ca - reer -- you can't af - ford a back - ward glance.
Dance on and on and on;
A thou - sand people here have come to see the show
As round and round you go,
So bal - le - ri - na dance, dance, dance.
