If You See Lil Lyrics - Singles - Barrett Dave

She's a little ballerina 

Who can dance without s sound 

In an old burned out building 

In a part of old town 

And there in sunlit terrace 

Where her shadow almost fades 

She dances to the music of a 

Morning parade. 

And though some see her 

They don't care that much 

She's a little girl who dances 

With the angels touch. 

Lil used ta twirl for me 

Oh, many years on back 

We'd stand upon the fire escape 

And she danced upon the tracks 

And there in a moonlit garden 

I would talk about my scenes 

Lil would do her dance'n 

And I would talk about my dreams 

And, oh with these old heals 

Under me now if I ever get back 

I'll tell her this right now. 

If you see Lil in the moonlight 

Tell her I'm doing fine, 

I'm all right and O.K. 

If you see Lil in the moonlight 

Tell her I am fine and I'm O.K. 

When it came time for me to go 

I lit another cigarette 

Has Lil put on a show 

And there I'd sit in her stairwell 

And look between the blinds 

And I'd go and pull her covers up 

Just one last time 

And oh as I walked out 

Into the city streets 

I'd look back through the window 

And see Lil upon her feet 

Well, they say that she is dancing 

In a midnight hourglass 

With an only rose that's there 

Has her supporting cast 

And they say that she pours tea 

For a crowd that isn't there 

Lil will go on dance'n 

'cause she just don't care 

And if I ever get back 

It won't be the same 

'cause she'll know I've been out there, 

Play n' sane.
