I had a date with a pretty ballerina Her hair so brilliant that it hurt my eyes I asked her for this dance and then she obliged me Was i surprised was i surprised no not at all I saw her yesterday it could have been tomorrow I couldn't keep the joy that was inside I begged for her to tell me if she really loves me Somewhere a mountain is moving afraid it's moving in on me And when i wake on a dreary monday 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 just close your eyes and she'll be there
