I've  gone to meet Isadora's dancers
Wrote  that girl on her own blue jeans
I've  given up  trying to find the answers
 And these  times they're sure turning mean
 So here's  to you and to my mother
 And to that  boy at work who lent me his radio
 Because for  me there's  never been no others
 At making  friends I'm awfully  slow awfully slow
 –  (x 3) –  -
 Aah aah
I  can dream of a nicer ending
And  I dreamed of a lonely show
With  just me  and my ballerina
 And she  turns slowly up on her toes
And  I clap and the hall it  echoes
And  my dancer's eyes are wide as a doe
But  the time wasn't  right for the  moment
This  I know this I know  – I let her  go
 –  (x 3) –  -
 Aah aah

And  it's raining and it's Sunday San Francisco
And  I think I'll go take in the porno show
Cause  it's dark and it's  cold and it's lonely
And  it's as far from love as you  can go
 So here's  to you Isadora's dancers
And  to that girl who just had to  go
And  as for me, well  I don't know the answers
Is  life too fast or is it just too slow
Oh  so slow
 –  (x 3) –  –
 Aah aah
