She works at a bar but she's too young to have a dream Praying for her mother's alcohol and colored pills Never see her father but he taught her to play One night she packed her bags and ran away Oh, now she's dancing alone, hmm Toes bleeding out on the floor, hmm Oh, now she's dancing alone, hmm As she moves her tagio, whoa-oh-oh She's beauty and grace, she's floating on stage Her happiest days with a smile on her face Her memory's stained by the song's only play And now she's dancing alone Fetishized by every man in town Roses filled the opera Hypnotized but when the curtain falls She's only safe in the applause Oh, now she's dancing alone, hmm Toes bleeding out on the floor, hmm Oh, now she's dancing alone, hmm As she moves her tagio, whoa-oh-oh She's beauty and grace, she's floating on stage Her happiest days with a smile on her face Her memory's stained by the song's only play And now she's dancing alone And now she's dancing alone Oh, now she's dancing alone, hmm Toes bleeding out on the floor, hmm Oh, now she's dancing alone, hmm As she moves her tagio, whoa-oh-oh She's beauty and grace, she's floating on stage Her happiest days with a smile on her face Her memory's stained by the song's only play And now she's dancing alone
