We both sat there in denial I was miles away You dusted off your old flats And you practiced your plies
Blank stares across an empty vacuum of stubbornness and vanity Instead of saying what you really mean You just dance away from me
I know your shadows I'm engrossed in silhouette You know just how that dance goes, my Queen of Pirouette
Cold breezes and colder shoulders to make this night complete Do I dare drag my feet Dare to sleep alone? Will you keep dancing to the beat?
I know your shadows I'm engrossed in silhouette You know just how that dance goes, my Queen of Pirouette
I will scream it from the rooftop Get this out of me And bellow out of key I'm too tired And now I just want to fall asleep But you just dance away from me
I know your shadows I'm engrossed in silhouette You know just how that dance goes, my Queen of Pirouette
