Ballerina

Spread your wings
Come on fly awhile
Straight to my arms
Little angel child
You know you only
Lonely twenty-two story block
And if somebody, not just anybody
Wanted to get close to you
For instance, me, baby
All you gotta do
Is ring a bell
Step right up, step right up
And step right up
Ballerina
Crowd will catch you
Fly it, sigh it, try it
Well, I may be wrong
But something deep in my heart tells me Im right and I dont think so
You know I saw the writing on the wall
When you came up to me
Child, you were heading for a fall
But if it gets to you
And you feel like you just cant go on
All you gotta do
Is ring a bell
Step right up, and step right up
And step right up
Just like a ballerina
Stepping lightly
Alright, well its getting late
Yes it is, yes it is
And this time I forget to slip into your slumber
The light is on the left side of your head
And Im standing in your doorway
And Im mumbling and I cant remember the last thing that ran through my head
Here come the man and he say, he say the show must go on
So all you gotta do
Is ring the bell
And step right up, and step right up
And step right up
Just like a ballerina, yeah, yeah
Crowd will catch you
Fly it, sight it, cmon, die it, yeah
Just like a ballerina
Just like a just like a just like a ballerina
Get on up, get on up, keep a-moving on, little bit higher, baby
You know, you know, you know, get up baby
Alright, a-keep on, a-keep on, a-keep on, a-keep on pushing
Stepping lightly
Just like a ballerina
Ooo-we baby, take off your shoes
Working on
Just like a ballerina

(VanMorrison)

Schwebt elfengleich über die Bühne. Wirkt so zerbrechlich. Bewegt sich dabei mit Anmut und Grazie. Ist stolz und unnahbar. Musik und ihr Tanz bewegen das Publikum.

Mit müden Gliedern im Training. Schwere Beine, steif und ungelenk. Trotzdem konzentriert. Schweiss und manchmal Tränen interessieren das Publikum nicht.

Applaus entschädigt.

Endlich mal ein Modetrend in Sachen Damenschuhe, der mir gefällt. Schön ist auch, daß die jungen Mädels durch die Ballerinas wieder häufiger Nylons tragen!
