Cosmic Dancer

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I was dancing when I was twelve

I was dancing when I was twelve

I was dancing when I was out

I was dancing when I was out

I danced myself right out the womb

I danced myself right out the womb

Is it strange to dance so soon?

I danced myself right out the womb

I was dancing when I was eight

I was dancing when I was eight

Is it strange to dance so late?

Is it strange to dance so late?

I danced myself into the tomb

I danced myself into the tomb

Is it strange to dance so soon?

I danced myself into the tomb

Is it wrong to understand

The fear that dwells inside a man?

What’s it like to be a loon?

I liken it to a balloon

I danced myself out of the womb

I danced myself out of the womb

Is it strange to dance so soon?

I danced myself into the tomb

But then again

Once more

I danced myself out of the womb

I danced myself out of the womb

Is it strange to dance so soon?

I danced myself out of the womb
