Just a normal fifty-hour week
Get home and first cook for the little ones
Because the kids come first for her
She wonders how it would have gone
But her day won't allow any break
She wants to dream, closes her eyes
And when she dances she's somewhere else
For the moment right where she wants
And when she dances she's someone else
Lets everything go just for the feeling
Then she walks barefoot in New York
Swims alone through Alaska
Jumps overboard off Bali
And dives through the blue water
And when she dances she's somewhere else
Lets everything go just for the feeling
She'd like to go on a date sometime
Not just stand in front of the mirror in her favorite dress
But whether she'll dare to do that
Even if time ever allows it
She wonders how it would have gone
She puts on her headphones
Cranks the music up loud
And when she dances she's somewhere else
For the moment right where she wants
And when she dances she's someone else
Lets everything go just for the feeling
Then she walks barefoot in New York
Swims alone through Alaska
Jumps overboard off Bali
And dives through the blue water
And when she dances she's somewhere else
Lets everything go just for the feeling
She's somewhere else, she's somewhere else
She's someone else, she's someone else
Then she walks barefoot in New York
Swims alone through Alaska
Jumps overboard off Bali
And dives through the blue water
And when she dances she's somewhere else
Lets everything go just for the feeling
