Tiny Dancer - Elton John (Madman Across the Water 1 of 9)

TINY DANCER
Elton John
Madman Across the Water (1971)

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand

Jesus freaks out in the street
Handing tickets out for God
Turning back she just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad

Piano man he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on she sings the songs
The words she knows, the tune she hums

But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can't hear me
When I say softly, slowly

Hold me closer tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
you had a busy day today

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand

As a young lass, I asked my babysitter for some records to listen to and she handed me this album and "Don't Shoot Me...", saying "I think you'll like this new guy." And how! I dug the embroidered denim look of this cover, so fate had me chose this song as my intro to the man who would orchestrate the music for the rest of my life. Thank you so much for posting these fantastic versions of the songs I literally grew up with!
