Tiny Dancer

[Verse 1]

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady

Seamstress for the band

Pretty-eyed, a pirate smile

You'll marry a music man

Ballerina, you must have seen her

Dancin' in the sand

And now she's in me, always with me

Tiny dancer in my hand

[Pre-Chorus]

But, oh, how it feels so real

Lyin' here with no one near

And only you, and you can hear me

When I say softly, slowly

[Chorus]

Hold me closer, tiny dancer

Count the headlights on the highway

Lay me down in sheets of linen

You've had a busy day today

Hold me closer, tiny dancer

Count the headlights on the highway

Lay me down in sheets of linen

You've had a busy day today

[Verse 2]

Jesus freaks out in the street

Handin' tickets out for God

Turnin' back, she just laughs

The boulevard is not that bad

Piano man, he makes his stand

In the auditorium

Lookin' on, she sings the songs

The words she knows, the tune she hums

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, how it feels so real

Lyin' here with no one near

And only you, and you can hear me

When I say softly, slowly

[Chorus]

Hold me closer, tiny dancer

Count the headlights on the highway

Lay me down in sheets of linen

You had a busy day today

Hold me closer, tiny dancer

Count the headlights on the highway

Lay me down in sheets of linen

You had a busy day today
