Sunnyside

We hung her ballet slippers on a telephone wire
Every time the wind blew they would swing
She danced like no one was watching her
When her world would spin around

We couldn't look away
As the wind made them sway
Memories are too quick to fade

We left her on the sunny side of town
Now we're left here standing as we lay her in the ground
We left her on the sunny side of town

She'd look up at times, look straight into your mind
Be careful with your words, she would see right through a lie
She danced like there was nothing left to hide

We couldn't look away
It's like she danced to heal the pain
Something words were just not good enough to say

We left her on the sunny side of town
Now we're left here standing as we lay her in the ground
We left her on the sunny side of town

She just did what she was born to
Danced until her slippers were worn through
We couldn't look away
As the wind made them sway
Memories are too quick to fade
