 4x
Blue  jean baby, L.A. lady,
seamstress  for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile,
 you'll marry  a music man
Ballerina,  you must  have seen  her
dancing in  the sand
 And now  she's in  me, always with  me,
 Tiny dancer  in my hand
 2x
Jesus freaks, out  in the street,
 Handing tickets  out for God
Turning back, she  just laughs
 The boulevard  is not that bad
Piano man,  he makes  his stand
 in the auditorium
Looking on,  she sings  the songs
 The words she knows,  the tune she hums
 2x
 But oh  how, it feels  so real,
lying  here, with no  one near
Only  you, and you can hear  me
 when I say softly, slowly
Hold  me closer  tiny dancer
 Count the headlights  on the highway
Lay  me down  in sheets of linen
 You had a busy  day today
Hold  me closer  tiny dancer
 Count the headlights  on the highway
Lay  me down  in sheets of linen
 You had a busy  day today  3x
