Lyrics Pretty Ballerina - The Left Banke

I had a date with a pretty ballerina
Her hair so brilliant that it hurtin' my eyes
I asked her for this dance and then she obliged me
Was I surprised? Yeah
Was I surprised? No, not at all
I called her yesterday, it should have been tomorrow
I could not keep this joy that was inside
I beg for her to tell me if she really loved me
Somewhere old mountain is moving
I'm afraid it's moving without me
I had a date with a pretty ballerina
Her hair so brilliant that it hurtin' my eyes
I asked for this dance and then she obliged me
Was I surprised? Yeah
Was I surprised? No, not at all
And when I wake on the dreary Sunday morning
I open up my eyes to find there's rain
And something strange within says go ahead and find her
Just close your eyes, yeah
Just close your eyes and she'll be there
She'll be there
She'll be there
