Píseň: The Dancer

Interpret:
Leo Sayer
Album:
Silverbird
Jeanette was a dancer

I suppose I knew her well

Her feet danced miracles

I was lost within her spell

Jeanette knew a singer

Was the leader of some band

Looked just like a boy

And stood just like a man

And it rains all down the avenue

Yes it rains all down the avenue

Just for you

Just for you

Just for you boy

Just for you

The kids in the back street cry

You hear their voices in your brain

The world is full of hungry souls



Behind the window panes

Little Jenny on the high wire

Slow motion as she fell

Sometimes I think the wire is me

The tragedy as well

And it rains all down the avenue

Oh yes it rains all down the avenue

It rains all down the avenue

Just for you

Just for you

Just for you boy

Just for you

Just for you boy

Just for you



[Solo]



I work on the west side

Jeanette I pulled your strings

I stood upon the pavement

I never owned a thing

And still I am the singer

I know my song so well

The rain falls through my eyes

And lands below the shell

And it rains all down the avenue

Yes it rains all down the avenue

Oh yes it rains all down the avenue

Just for you boy

Just for you

Just for you boy

Just for you
