Barbie Girl
Remember when you asked me to dance?
You took my hands because I could barely stand
Five years old
Heart of gold
When that song came on the radio
You whirled me around, you didn't let go
Laughing with my Barbie
Dancing right next to me
Barbie Girl was my song
You knew the words, so you sang along
We danced all night
You pulled me in, my feet took flight
Up in the air you lifted me
The kind of dancing you see at the end of a fairytale movie
The nights grew colder,
and even though now I'm much older
There's not a day that goes by
Where I don't wish you were still dancing by my side
Your little girl with a head of curls
Grew up like her parents
She wishes she could still have that dance
I miss the days when I had nothing to care about
Instead of being twenty two with a heart of doubt
So I'll dance quietly, alone in my room
No one around but the bright white moon
I set up my stuffed toys
They're my new audience of girls and boys
I play our song
And I sing along
As if I were five again and nothing ever ended
I play pretend
With my Barbie friends
You walk in, smile, and shake your head
As you sit quietly on my bed
You take my hand
And we dance one last dance
Up in the air
Flowing long hair
Your little girl
Ruled the world
To this day
Our song will play
Little Barbie
Your little darling
