You watch the dancer steal your heart away
There is nothing you can do, nothing you can say
Well you can watch the love go by but you can't bring it home
'cause the dancer loves a man and he calls her his own
From behind the stage you stare as the angel spreads her wings
Something in you wants to cry but instead you sing
La la la la la la la la la, oh oh
The angel turns she hears your voice and you think you see her smile
But in a moment the glance is gone for she's dancing all the while
And as she bows to leave the stage and the crowd calls out for more
She disappears inside a maze that leads her through a door
Your heart falls on the floor
You watch the dancer steal your heart away
There's nothing you can do, nothing you can say
Well you can watch the love go by but you can't bring it home
'cause the dancer loves a man and he calls her his own
'cause the dancer loves a man and he calls her his own
