Dancing and twirling and humming
She glides across the ballroom floor
All alone, and in her mind
She feels her partner's hands
As she dances so solemnly
She dances so perfectly
So happily
Skipping and leaping and twisting
She falls into the rhythm
Of music unheard by her unseen audience
Her feet so delicately lead her body
As she dances so solemnly
She dances so perfectly
So sadly
Turning and spinning and stepping
She moves with a grace so beautiful
It amazes those who see
She dances a maze of steps so complicated
And she dances so solemnly
She dances so perfectly
So wisely
Living and breathing and dying
All at once she lives in everything
She knows she'll forget these steps the next day
But she'll never forget her dance partner's face
As she dances so solemnly
She dances so perfectly
And she dances her last dance
She glides across the ballroom floor
All alone, and in her mind
She feels her partner's hands
As she dances so solemnly
She dances so perfectly
So happily
Skipping and leaping and twisting
She falls into the rhythm
Of music unheard by her unseen audience
Her feet so delicately lead her body
As she dances so solemnly
She dances so perfectly
So sadly
Turning and spinning and stepping
She moves with a grace so beautiful
It amazes those who see
She dances a maze of steps so complicated
And she dances so solemnly
She dances so perfectly
So wisely
Living and breathing and dying
All at once she lives in everything
She knows she'll forget these steps the next day
But she'll never forget her dance partner's face
As she dances so solemnly
She dances so perfectly
And she dances her last dance
