lyrics

Rachel talks to me in strange ways
She tells me that this ballet dance is worth all the pain
Rachel comes and goes, but she's never far away
She tells me to be patient, and wait for a change

She holds my hand while I'm out here twisting on a line
She keeps my faith in love alive one day at a time
But how long will I have to wait...
For my Broken Ballerina?

Rachel reaches out for me when I'm slipping away
She says the Ballerina's locked herself inside a cage
Rachel begs me, "Hold on for one more day"
To help the Dancer break her chains
And find her way back to the stage

She holds my hand but I'm still dangling on this line
She keeps my faith in love alive one minute at a time
But how long will I have to wait...
For my Broken Ballerina?

Rachel wants the Dancer to spread her wings and fly
She longs to see her echappe into a better life
Rachel's own wings won't let her come down from the sky
So she depends on me to help the Dancer see the light

She holds my hand
But I can stand and I'm ready for this fight
And I will keep my faith in love burning day and night
And I don't care how long it takes
Because the love is worth the wait
When one day she will grand jete...
My Broken Ballerina
