Priscilla Lyrics
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
And dance in the hall
With the music up loud
Against the light on the wall
Feeling no shame
We were in costume
And this was a game
Of layers of chiffon
The top of the umbrella had come off
So I put that on
An awkward ballet
She was 20 years older than I was
But still we did play
And many times my size
But it's her little feet I remember
And the look in her eyes
She made me a doll
Of ribbon and paper and ink
And lace, I recall
Feeling no shame
We were in costume
And this was a game
I still love to dance
Something will shine through the body
If you give it a chance

I believe this song meeting is about a young girl who doesn't know that she's actually dancing with her young mother. The young girl was raised by her grandmother or raised by somebody else, and she's dancing with her mother that she doesn't know, is her mother
