Suzanne Vega — Priscilla

[Verse 1] She'd come to my house And dance in the hall With the music up loud Against the light on the wall [Verse 2] And I danced beside her Feeling no shame We were in costume And this was a game [Verse 3] She'd put on her skirt Of layers of chiffon The top of the umbrella had come off So I put that on [Verse 4] And we danced together then An awkward ballet She was 20 years older than I was But still we did play [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 5] She was 20 years older than me And many times my size It's her little feet I remember The look in her eyes [Verse 6] And once when I saw her She made me a doll Of ribbon and paper and ink And lace, I recall [Verse 7] I danced beside her Feeling no shame 'Cause we were in costume And this was a game [Verse 8] I think of her now I'm older I still love to dance Something will shine through the body If you give it a chance [Instrumental Outro] (Still love to dance) (Still love to dance) (Still love to dance) (Still love to dance) (Still love to dance) (Still love to dance)
