Оригинален текст
She'd come to my house
And dance in the hall
With the music up loud
Against the light on the wall
I danced beside her
Feeling no shame
We were in costume
And this was a game
She'd put on her skirt of layers of chiffon
The top of the umbrella had come off
So I put that on
We'd dance together then
An awkward ballet
She was 20 years older than I was
But still we did play
She was 20 years older than me
And many times my size
But it's her little feet I remember
And the look in her eyes
Once when I saw her
She made me a doll of ribbon and paper and ink
And lace, I recall
I danced beside her
Feeling no shame
We were in costume
And this was a game
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
