Isadora Duncan Lyrics
Once I dreamed I was dancing with Isadora Duncan
In a silver café . It was a café that was not near here.
She was planning to diversify
And she say I should do the same
So I whistled to her how I loved her the best.
But she sang "I can't believe you own this attitude".
So with some ballet moves, I removed her shoes
And I painted my lips to hers and still she sang "I can't believe you own this attitude" (2).
She needed her beauty sleep but I didn't want it to sound like that
Her mind was occupied...
Her hard coffee was cold by then as snow
She sang "my smile is more than pearly white,
And my dreams are more than you"
And she sang "My yellow eyes are more than mirrors
and my scarf is more than costume".
She closed her New Directions paperbook and screamed "there is no shelter in the arts"
She'd been crying all day but now her eyes they were brighter than the moon...

does anyone out there know this song? This was my favorite song when I was 16 or 17 years old...on a tape my brother made for me of a band called the La-Di-Da's. Another song on there was Bakersfield, and maybe a song called Danny Carlisle. I loved this guys's music, was so sad when I heard he passed away.. Sorry to say, I am nowhere near 16 or 17 years old anymore. I think maybe I still have that tape somewhere...............
