You walk in the room and you're wearing a frown,
You reach for the shelf and cradle it down
The Music Box Dancer, what does it prove?
Only that you need to see a statue that moves.
A tutu of satin, bordered with lace,
Slender lines, agile legs, a wonderland face.
Her beauty is balanced, an immovable pose,
Eternally destined to remain on her toes.
Music Box Dancer, she is only a toy,
Project upon her your dreams of wanting life's joy;
She's perched on her stand, and never will part,
A final gaze upon her, now the music will start.
(pick up the tempo and the volume a little)
You wind the doll up, it's nostalgic because
You've been here before, so give one final pause
To dream of the future, to reflect on the past,
Music Box Dancer start your whirling at last.
(louder still but same tempo)
The room fills with music, such a cute song,
Watching her go 'round and 'round, she's where she belongs;
Bring joy to the watchers, spreading a glow,
Whenever wound up, she'll put on a good show.
(back to normal volume and tempo)
Music Box Dancer, do you think or believe
She could step off her box if she wanted to leave?
So easy it is, twirl around with such grace,
Staying in her circle, she remains in one place.
(slower tempo and a little quieter)
Such a brief moment, a small time to spend,
The dancing will slow soon, the music will end;
In real life we're plastic, nature's unfair,
How can we breathe life, how can we share
(quieter and slower still, band barely audible)
The knowledge and insights hidden in tombs,
We're all Music Box Dancers all alone in our rooms;
We sit on our shelves where objects reside,
We don't allow the music to get right inside.
(really slow and quiet, no band at all)
Music Box Dancer's now completely alone,
No winder or no listener, because nobody's home;
How long before someone will re-wind the spring?
The room will now be witness; and silence can't sing
音乐 Music box dancer
Ray Conniff 的歌词
I dream of a music box dancer no one can see
She twirls around and round and dances only for me
She’s just a cute music box dancer singing for me
When I hear that melody I know I’ll never be free
She dances and she sings it and she has a good time
She smiles when she goes by and to me that’s just fine
She plays it and she sings it and she keeps to the time
And the little music box dancer will one day be mine
I dream about a girl who sings and dances for me
The love she gives to me is love that really could be
She twirls herself around and throws her kisses at me
My little music box dancer that no one can see
I dream of a music box dancer playing her song
She sings it and she dances to it all day long
She’s just a cute music box dancer playing for me
When I hear that melody I know for me love can be
My little music box dancer is something to see
The way she twirls around is just as cute as can be
As long as she’s around I know I’ll never be free
Why no one else can see her is a mystery to me
I dream about a girl who sings and dances for me
The feeling that I have for her was just meant to be
And when she twirls around and throws her kisses at me
I love my music box dancer that no one can see
My little music box dancer that no one can see
