Текст песни Ballerina - Nat "King" Cole

Dance ballerina dance
And do your pirouette in rhythm with your aching heart
Dance ballerina dance
You musn't once forget a dancer has to dance the part
Whirl ballerina whirl
And just ignore the chair that's empty in the second row
This is your moment girl
Although he's not out there applauding as you steal the show
Once you said
His love must wait its turn
You wanted fame instead
I guess that's your concern
We live and learn
And love is gone ballerina gone
So on with your career
You can't afford a backward glance
Dance on and on and on
A thousand people here
Have come to see the show
As 'round and 'round you go
So ballerina dance, dance, dance
Whirl ballerina
Once you said
His love must wait its turn
You wanted fame instead
I guess that's your concern
We live and learn
And love is gone ballerina gone
So on with your career
You can't afford a backward glance
Dance on and on and on
A thousand people here
Have come to see the show
As 'round and 'round you go
So ballerina dance
Dance
