Stella Andrews (3rd july 1994)
she'll be there for you
Wind the music box round and round,
Turn it tighter and tighter
It’s so lonely being her
Watch the ballerina dance
She dances to the music
But she has no choice
You can’t even hear her voice
She’s stuck there.
She sings to herself
As she twirls around
She sings a song called “It’s not too long till I’ll be found”
She wants someone to hear her song
She watches you watching her
She sees your smile
She knows you will only be there for a while
So she sings her heart out
She will sing for you
And she will dance for you
She will stay there for you
And she will wait for you.
Forever singing
And dancing alone
She will be there for you
