Dreams of a Dancer - Steve Azar

We’d drive to the river

She’d dance on the levee

Like it was her stage

My ballerina, shined in the bright lights

Of my Chevrolet

We used to laugh about that

But deep down I knew that she had

Dreams of a dancer

Spinnin' round in her head

I never asked her

And she never said

Where they would lead her

I didn’t wanna know

I just held on tight

Till she let go

The music called

She had to answer

The dream of a dancer

One night on the levee

We watched the stars

Till they disappeared

Softly she swayed

To a distant song

Only she could hear

She kissed me then whispered good-bye

And I saw through the tears in her eyes

Dreams of a dancer

Spinnin' round in her head

I never asked her

And she never said

Where they would lead her

I didn’t wanna know

I just held on tight

Till she let go

The music called

She had to answer

The dream of a dancer

Sometimes I go drivin' at night

Down by the river and I turn out the lights

Dreams of a dancer

Spinnin' round in her head

I never asked her

And she never said

Where they would lead her

I didn’t wanna know

I just held on tight

Till she let go

The music called

She had to answer

The dream of a dancer
