๐ Lyrics
It's raining again in my head
There's thunder again in my bed
I'm searching for something red
Under a pale blue sky
If life is a rodeo
Sometimes you've got to let go
Just turn on the radio
Sit back and close your eyes
I'll write you a song so sweet so you can play
Something that makes you think of me each day
I'm shivering here like a stranger in the hall
Just waiting to hear you call
So you can be my ballerina
Dancing away the dark
Softer than the sunset
Spilling out across the sea
A concertina keeps on playing in my heart
Rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
It keeps on rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
Out at the edge of town
They're turning the horses around
One of them caught the sound
Of the universe
I'll wait here until July
To give you the time to try
I'll look to the western sky
While the band rehearse
Give me the steps and I'll teach myself to dance
Give me the cards and I'll deal myself a chance
Give me the keys and I'll lock myself away
Just waiting to hear you say
That you will be my ballerina
Dancing away the dark
Softer than the sunset
Spilling out across the sea
A concertina keeps on playing in my heart
Rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
It keeps on rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
These tales that I've been told
They're turning the sunshine cold
I've followed these streets of gold
Over endless miles
If I had a soul to sell
It would be just as well
I'd wander the depths of hell
Just to see you smile
I'm just sitting and drinking cocktails in the park
I'm just hoping to see some shadows in the dark
Way out on the coast where the wind can be unkind
I'd wait until the end of time
For you to be my ballerina
Dancing away the dark
Softer than the sunset
Spilling out across the sea
A concertina keeps on playing in my heart
Rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
It keeps on rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
There's thunder again in my bed
I'm searching for something red
Under a pale blue sky
If life is a rodeo
Sometimes you've got to let go
Just turn on the radio
Sit back and close your eyes
I'll write you a song so sweet so you can play
Something that makes you think of me each day
I'm shivering here like a stranger in the hall
Just waiting to hear you call
So you can be my ballerina
Dancing away the dark
Softer than the sunset
Spilling out across the sea
A concertina keeps on playing in my heart
Rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
It keeps on rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
Out at the edge of town
They're turning the horses around
One of them caught the sound
Of the universe
I'll wait here until July
To give you the time to try
I'll look to the western sky
While the band rehearse
Give me the steps and I'll teach myself to dance
Give me the cards and I'll deal myself a chance
Give me the keys and I'll lock myself away
Just waiting to hear you say
That you will be my ballerina
Dancing away the dark
Softer than the sunset
Spilling out across the sea
A concertina keeps on playing in my heart
Rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
It keeps on rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
These tales that I've been told
They're turning the sunshine cold
I've followed these streets of gold
Over endless miles
If I had a soul to sell
It would be just as well
I'd wander the depths of hell
Just to see you smile
I'm just sitting and drinking cocktails in the park
I'm just hoping to see some shadows in the dark
Way out on the coast where the wind can be unkind
I'd wait until the end of time
For you to be my ballerina
Dancing away the dark
Softer than the sunset
Spilling out across the sea
A concertina keeps on playing in my heart
Rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
It keeps on rising like a river
Then dying like a dream
