Hung her ballet slippers on
and her toes were pointed down
Every time the wind blows
when the world would spin around
She nev er knew the joy that it would bring
as the wind it made them sway
Memories are too quick to fade
Left her on the sunny side of town
We all watched this old world,
Now we're left here standing
as we lay her in the ground
Left her on the sunny side of town
She had fire in her eyes,
but she was always looking down
look straight into your mind
And we couldn't look away
It's like she danced to heal the pain
It's just not good enough to say
Too afraid it'd be your last
And if we knew the truth,
she would never want to stay
Left her on the sunny side of town
We all watched as this old world
Now we're left here standing
as we lay her in the ground
Left her on the sunny side of town
She just did what she was born to
slippers were worn through
And we couldn't look away
as the wind made them sway
The memories are too quick to fade
We left her on the sunny side of town
We all watched this old world,
Now we're left here standing
as we laid her in the ground
Left her on the sunny side of town
She just did what she was born to
slippers were worn through
And we couldn't look away
As the wind makes them sway
Memories are too quick to fade
Left her on the sunny side of town
We all watched as this old world
Now we're left here standing
As we lay here in the ground
Left her on the sunny side of town
Left her on the sunny side of town
