THE DANCING LIGHT - Fred Small from the album "No Limit" (c) 1981 Pine Barrens Music
CAm i remember her when she was shining bright DmAmG deep in her dark eyes there shone a dancing light FGCF she always used to say that she was not the marrying kind DmGC until she met the man who changed her mind
he was beautiful and lord, he was strong knew where he was going, rising like the sun and he believed in her and listened to her thoughts and long into the evening they would talk
FGCEm7Am seemed like we just blinked our eyes and - she slipped away DmFDmG this woman full of fire and wonder - only yesterday FGCF there ain't no doubt she's happy, ain't nothing really wrong DmGAm but the dancing light inside her eyes is gone
he got the job he wanted, she left hers behind she said she had no future there - she didn't mind in another city she began a brand new life loving the man and learning to be a wife
we still get a letter from time to time she writes about the baby, not what's on her mind i guess she's got her reasons, it ain't for me to say but it makes me sad to lose a friend that way
