Ballerina

You are found at fingertips like a marionette,
Quatre pirouette, coupe jeté, grand plijé, brise amourettes,

Why do you do these:

All the time

All the time

For me

For me 

When There’s nothing that I give
You bent, you bend backwards arriere cambre
Break your heart on display 
leave your heart on the stage

All the time

All the time


For me 

For me

Like a ballerina 

Like a ballerina


     with a one ...two

            a one ...two

            "I want you"

            "I want you"

i can see 

i can see


                       a one ...two ...three
                         a one ...two ...three
                            a one ..two ...three

                        a three ...four

                        "i want to be!"
                            "i want to be!"
                               "I want to be!..."
                         "...Be yours"
