Dance In The Shadows - Tom Paxton

Back in the trees

Where I learned to say please

Where I begged for a taste

From the table

She made me know

There was need to go slow

When she taught me to dance

In the shadows

Where were my hands

That were mine to command

Now they seemed to be somewhere in china

She brought them back

God bless her for that

When she taught me to dance

In the shadows

Oh she could have laughed at me

Oh she could have left me for dead

What did I know

Less than nothing

So I listened and did as she said

And back in the grass

I heard the moon pass

I listened to stars spreading rumours

With dawn coming fast

I murmured at last

She had taught me to dance

In the shadows

Oh she could have laughed at me

Oh she could have left me for dead

What did I know

Less than nothing

So I listened and did as she said

And back in the grass

I heard the moon pass

I listened to stars spreading rumours

With dawn coming fast

I murmured at last

She had taught me to dance

In the shadows

With dawn coming fast

I murmured at last

She had taught me to dance

In the shadows
