Текст песни The Ballerina Song - Kenny Rogers

Turn out the lights
Leave me alone
For in my darkness I have found a home
All by my self
Here in the cold
But in my solitude, I will search my soul

I want someone to look at me
Not what I am, what I can be
There's just so much a heart can take
And then there's nothing left to break

They're in the light, blinded by fame
I was the brightest star, and they all knew my name
I danced and danced, they wanted more
And every night they laid their roses at my door

I loved the way they looked at me
When I was all that I could be
I gave my all to all who came
Will I ever be the same?

Covered with dust, just stand the way
What I would give if I could dance my pain away
I'd close my eyes, get lost in time
'Til I could find the hidden place here in my mind
Where I will wait 'til I can see
Someone who loves me just for me
