Where Did She Go

Used to be when I was really me She would leap out alive so full of life and cockiness the time I really thrived Then told it's not allowed anymore it's no good for your health so back inside she hid away no more my confident self She fights to come back out again I can feel her deep inside pushing against the cage bars desperate to feel alive At times she escapes out here again ready to dance and play I need to help her be free to finally have her way Remember when you raced away with a handsome man aside music belting out so loud your smile so wild and wide Dancing down the street with glee in stockings and heels so high only had to choose and point to find with whom to lie That seems so long and far away lost in the mists of time that dancing girl so long gone now let her out to shine
