Ballerina

Ballerina, the day I sat next to you
Made me fall apart and I don't ever do

I’m just keeping step with time
No one else to fall behind
In this island of a life

Ballerina, promise me
You won't freak out if you hear this
I tend to leave my feelings out

Troubled times follow me
That's why you’re nothing but a dream
Kicking hard every night

Ballerina, the day I sat next to you
Made me fall apart and I don't ever do

'Cause baby I don't care
How long you need to find a prayer
How long you need to take my breath away from home

And baby I'll be here
Writing the same shit all year
Waiting for the day my arms will take you home
The way you laugh
The way you walk
Gets me like no other talk
Drumming patterns say her name

And as I watch you roll your eyes
The ones I think of all the time
Nothing happens but regret

Ballerina, the day I sat next to you
Made me fall apart and I don't ever do

And baby I don't care
How long you need to find a prayer
How long you need to take my breath away from home

And baby I’ll be here
