I dance through snow
like my life is a fairy tale
but there are no glass slippers or castles where I belong
sometimes I'll give my gift and I'll even sing my song
to the ones that touch my soul in their way
but theyll never stay
noone ever stays too long

I trust and fall, I laugh, I give
this is the only way I know to live
but every hand I try to hold
turns to ice, turns so cold

everyone hurts the gypsy girl
they take her light, then leave her world
magic soul, heart too open gentle and wide
always alone
no place to hide

even blood can bruise so deep
i cry in colors when I sleep
i was born to love not to be loved
everyone hurts the gypsy girl

they say I shimmer, say I shine
but only when they want what's mine
a singing voice like wind through ancient trees
but no one hears my silent pleas

So I dance in circles, I sing to the stars
wishing someone could see these scars
but maybe I’m not meant to stay
maybe I was born to drift away

Everyone hurts the gypsy girl
but still she spins, still she twirls
snow beneath and fire above
still believing in a thing called love
even when it breaks her soul
even when it takes its toll
she was born to give her all
even when they watch her fall…

Everyone hurts the gypsy girl…
but shell keep dancing in her gypsy world
she lives in her own fairy tale world
yes she does
