A prima ballerina, that's what I want to be.
When I dance and close my eyes,
This is what I see,

Chorus
White feathers, princess crowns,
Satin shoes, and gorgeous gowns,
I'll be Cinderella and you can be a queen
Spin on a snowflake or reach across moon beams
Bright as the starlight, or that's just how it seems
In the spotlight it's pure magic, dancing your dreams
To be a ballerina, takes more than I can say
Let's go ask someone who knows all about ballet

Chorus

New York is the greatest place.
There's so much to see.
Broadway has the brightest lights.
There's Miss Liberty.
King Kong climbed the Empire State
Still the place for me
This is Lincoln Center, it's where I want to be.

Chorus

Remember as you practiced,
When all is said and done.
Even if you're not so great,
It's still a lot of fun.

Chorus

In the spotlight it's pure magic, dancing your dreams
