Oh ballerina alone,
With your arched feet and pointed toes.
With your blue eyes and pointed nose.
Oh ballerina alone.
With your smiling mouth and small ears.
With your peace of mind and simple fears.
Oh ballerina alone.
There's a tulip on your table peering at your face.
Beautiful in it's simple crystal vase.
Oh ballerina alone.
All alone in your home.
Where nobody is know.
Until you step out in the sun.
