Michael Patrick Kelly - When She Dances (Wenn sie tanzt) (Aus „Sing meinen Song, Vol. 7“) lyrics

Just another fifty hour week she comes home
Makes the little ones something to eat
To her it's really no big deal
Her kids mean everything
That's how she'll always feel

She thinks about the life
She had without children
It was so simple then
But this pace in life is all she knows
So she dreams when her eyes are closed
When she dances, in that moment
She's anywhere that she wants to be
And when she dances, she lets go
Of all that's real and she feels so free
She's running barefoot in New York
Hitch-hiking through Alaska
Jumps overboard in Bali
Comes alive in the blue water
When she dances, she lets go
She is someone else and she feels so free
(Hey)

She'd love to go out on a date again
Dress up and not just to pretend
There's no time for romance now
'Cause home, work and bills to pay
That's what her life's about

She thinks about the way
It was without children
Life was so simple then
So she puts her headphones on
And turns up her favorite song

And when she dances, in that moment
She's anywhere that she wants to be
And when she dances, she lets go
Of all that's real and she feels so free
She's running barefoot in New York
Hitch-hiking through Alaska
Jumps overboard in Bali
Comes alive in the blue water
When she dances, she lets go
She is someone else and she feels so free
(Let's go) dance, dance
Dance, dance dance, dance
Dance, dance

And when she dances, in that moment
She's anywhere that she wants to be
And when she dances, she lets go
Of all that's real and she feels so free
She's running barefoot in New York
Hitch-hiking through Alaska
Jumps overboard in Bali
Comes alive in the blue water
When she dances, she lets go
She's someone else and she feels so free (Go)

Dance, dance dance, dance
Dance, dance
