Criminal Eyes (uptempo edit)

When this burden is lifted from me

When she finally gets to dance

When she finally gets to dance

© 2914 Dan Sullivan

As a child she watched Fred Astaire 

Movies  on TV

She would dance with him every night 

But only in her dreams

But dreams are as real as the love you feel

When you’re only 9 years old

When she finally gets to dance

I hope he sweeps her off of her feet

I hope he spins her ‘round the ol’ dance floor

And makes her life complete

When she finally gets to dance

Later on she learned that life can be 

Sometimes cruel and mean

At the prom she danced the night away

But only in her dreams

‘Cause dreams are as real as the love you feel

When you’re almost seventeen

When she finally gets to dance

I hope he sweeps her off of her feet

I hope he spins her ‘round the ol’ dance floor

And makes her life complete

When she finally gets to dance

As the years rolled by their weight has left

Scars that were not there 

When she was only 9 years old

And dreamt of Fred Astaire

But dreams are as real as the love you feel

When you’re pushing thirty-four

When she finally gets to dance

I hope he sweeps her off of her feet

I hope he spins her ‘round the ol’ dance floor

And makes her life complete

When she finally gets to dance
