Dance, ballerina, dance
And do your pirouette in rhythm with your achin heart
Dance, ballerina, dance
You mustnt once forget a dancer has to dance the part
Whirl, ballerina, whirl
And just ignore the chair thats empty in the second row
This is your moment, girl
Although hes not out there applauding as you steal the show
Once you said his love must wait its turn
You wanted fame instead
I guess thats your concern
We live and learn
And love is gone, ballerina, gone
So on with your career, you cant 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!
Whirl ballerina
Once you said his love must wait its turn
You wanted fame instead
I guess thats your concern
We live and learn
And love is gone, ballerina, gone
So on with your career, you cant 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
