BALLERINA
(English Lyrics by Jimmy Kennedy)
Troise & His Mandoliers


It’s only when I see the ballerina dancing
On my guitar I start romancing
I play a tune that says I love you
Each evening while her castanets are gaily beating
On my guitar I keep repeating
A little tune that says I love you

I watch her cool dark eyes
That glow like midnight skies
She doesn’t realise that some night soon
With the stars above her, I’ll tell her how I love her
When I see the ballerina dancing
On my guitar I start romancing
I play a tune that says I love you

When I see the ballerina dancing
On my guitar I start romancing
I play a tune that says I love you
