Dancing Your Dreams
Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I dance and close my eyes, this is what I see...
White feathers, princess crowns,
Satin shoes, and gorgeous gowns,
I'll be Cinderella and you can be a queen
In the spotlight it's pure magic, dancing your dreams
Let's go ask someone who knows all about ballet!
White feathers, princess crowns,
Satin shoes, and gorgeous gowns,
Spin on a snowflake or reach across moon beams
In the spotlight it's pure magic, dancing your dreams
New York is the greatest place;
There's so much to see.
Broadway has the brightest lights.
There's Miss Liberty.
King Kong climbed the Empire State
Still the place for me
This is Lincoln Center, it's where I want to be.
(Intstrumental)
White feathers, princess crowns,
Satin shoes, and gorgeous gowns,
Bright as the starlight, or that's just how it seems
In the spotlight it's pure magic, dancing your dreams
