Twelfth Of Never - Nightlong lyrics

Long ago I saw her spinning slowly by herself in some room full of strangers in some strange town Spin around and look at me, please Come to see and speak with me "Life is lonely," someone said, but I was spellbound and could only nod my head A dancer from a dream, a footstep away from me Another time near the water standing on the Singing Sands watching ships from other lands I turned my gaze and she was there spinning slowly by the water From somewhere the music caught her and carried her away I was spellbound A dancer from a dream, a footstep away from me I've followed her footprints but they disappear And sometimes I think it's her singing I hear Through years of eluding me I finally one night sat at my mirror longing for the sight Lo! She appeared and didn't flee The dancer I had sometimes seen was laughing looking back at me.
