Ballerina

There's a skinny European ballerina dancing for me in my room

And I don't know what to do

Her eyes a piercing blue

There's a pretty European ballerina dancing for me all alone

There's a feeling in my bones

A burning kept in stone

There's a single European ballerina dancing for no one but me

The only thing I see is

Her radiant beauty

There's a lovely European ballerina staring me in the face

My demons held at bay

Transfixed by her grace

 

Burning brightly as I

stare at the dancer divine

My eyes are full of fire,

aglow in the darkness of night

In the light

She catches my gaze in her sights

My pretty European ballerina

Waits for me to cross the line
