The Dancer

[Verse 1]
Jeanette was a dancer
I suppose I knew her well
Her feet danced miracles
I was deep within her spell

[Verse 2]
Jeanette knew a singer
Was the leader of some band
Looked just like a boy
And stood just like a man

[Chorus]
And it rains all down the avenue
Yes it rains all down the avenue
Just for you
Just for you
Just for you boy
Just for you

[Verse 3]
The kids in the back street cry
Their voices in your brain
The world is full of hungry souls
Behind the window panes

[Verse 4]
Little Jenny on the high wire
Slow motion as she fell
Sometimes I think the wire is me
The tragedy as well

[Chorus]
And it rains all down the avenue
Oh yes it rains all down the avenue
Just for you boy
Just for you
Just for you boy
Just for you

[Instrumental]

[Verse 5]
I work on the West Side
Jeanette I pulled your strings
I stood upon the pavement
I never owned a thing

[Verse 6]
And still I am the singer
I know my song so well
The rain falls through my eyes
And lands below the shell

[Chorus]
And it rains all down the avenue
Yes it rains all down the avenue
Oh yes it rains all down the avenue
Just for you boy
Just for you
Just for you boy
Just for you
