Evening fades and she's lost in her reverie
Applying a dancer's face, the girl looking into me
Appearing center stage, she's a midnight celebrity
Performing with tempting grace, still shrouded in mystery
No one knows what she sacrificed
What she is looking for, the girl with the liquid eyes
She's lonely but not alone in her web of lies
Her life is not her own till the legend has gone
Dance all night, a passionate poetess
No fate to be shining bright with all through eternity
And come the morning light, you'll be dancing the night away
No pity for every child to be given such a sad old day
For the girl looking into me, she is dancing her life away
No one knows what she sacrificed
What they were blaming on, the girl with the liquid eyes
She's carried the guilt alone through a web of lies
Abandoned and on her own when the music had gone
Dance all night, a passionate poetess
No fate to be shining bright with all through eternity
And come the morning light, you'll be dancing the night away
No pity for every child to be given such a sad old day
For the girl looking into me, she is dancing her life away
For the girl looking into me, she is dancing her life away
