The Dancing Light Lyrics

I remember her when she was shining bright

Deep in her dark eyes there shone a dancing light

She always used to say that she was not the marrying kind

Until she met the man who changed her mind

He was beautiful and Lord he was strong

Knew where he was going, rising like the sun

And he believed in her and listened to her thoughts

And long into the evening they would talk.

CHORUS:

Seemed like we just blinked our eys and she slipped away

This woman full of fire and wonder only yesterday

There ain't no doubt she's happy, ain't nothing really wrong

But the dancing light inside her eyes is gone.Small Fred - The Dancing Light - http://motolyrics.com/small-fred/the-dancing-light-lyrics.html

He got the job he wanted, she left hers behind

She said she had no future there, she didn't mind.

In another city she began a brand new life

Loving the man and learning to be a wife

We still get a letter from time to time

She writes about the baby, not what's on her mind.

I guess she's got her reasons, it ain't for me to say

But it makes me sad to lose a friend that way.

CHORUS

...But the dancing light inside her eyes--

It's hard sometimes just to survive--

Oh the dancing light is gone
