Glitter And Dust, lyric by Renaissance, The

from the songs album Still Life

Once she would dance on centre stage
While he was blinded by the light
She sang and danced, danced her glitter dreams for them
While he, he waited out of sight

But he won't wait there forever more
He told her so, she did not believe his words
So she would dance in those glitter dreams
She did not know he would leave

So she would dance his life away
'cause she was blinded by the lights
And when he left, left her glitter dreams behind
She danced, she danced into the night

But without love waiting in the wings
She would dance for him, she could not believe he'd gone
So now she dances her dusty dreams
The glitter's gone
Now the glitter's turned into dust, she dances on ...

Now without love waiting in the wings
She will dance for him, she does not believe he's gone
And now she dances her dusty dream
The glitter's gone
Now the glitter's turned into dust

On, on and on she dances all alone
She dances just for him
She sings come back, sings to him from centre stage
But now the light is growing dim

Turned to dust .....
Dust .....
