Ballerina
Chinese Theatre Lyrics

In a dusty little town not far away a girl is dancing by the fire
In a remote town, a girl dances fervently by a fire every day.

Everyday. It′s the secret she's hiding in the shadows of the night.
This is her daily ritual, kept undercover in the darkness of the night.

On the dancefloor, like a candle in the dark,
When she dances, she shines like a flickering candle amidst the darkness.

She pulls the strings that caused so many broken hearts. Ballerina,
Her dancing skills are so captivating that she has the ability to break people's hearts.

You′ll only reach the passion if you fight. Ballerina,
To achieve one's passion, one must fight for it, just like the ballerina does with her dancing.

If you're blinded by the light,
If one is overwhelmed by success and fame,

Don't never ever cut the line between us.
Don't sever the connection between people, even if you're successful.

Ballerina, you′re a fire in the night,
The ballerina is a vibrant, powerful force in the darkness of the night.

Your name will shine forever ballerina
Her talent and name will be remembered and revered for all of time.

All alone she′s making moves by candlelight to the echoes of a song
She dances alone to the rhythm of music by candlelight.

All dressed in white.
She wears white clothing, possibly symbolizing purity or innocence.

She's an angel or just another stranger in
She could be seen as angelic or just another mysterious person in the night.

The night. Just another stranger in the night.
In the darkness, she may not stand out as anyone special to passersby.
