I Wish You Could Have Seen Her Dance (2006 Remaster)

She wore a low cut black satin dress
Slit up the front and down the back
She wore black high heeled shoes
With laces that went up her ankles
She wore black velvet gloves
With rhinestone bracelets around them
She had long blond hair
She had long blond hair
Long blond hair
Long blond hair
And she sat on the jukebox with one leg propped up
And a crowd of boys gathered 'round her
And one tried to kiss her
But she turned her face
And I wish you could have seen her dance
The way she soared across the floor
I wish you could have seen her dance
She did a pirouette and then a kung fu step
I wish you could have seen her dance
The way she threw her hair through the air
And I wish you could have seen her dance
I asked her
Do you come here often
She said
I've never been here before
I asked her
Her name and she said
They call me kim boston in england
And kim english in boston and also in dallas
I said
How did you like dallas
She said
It was just like ireland
Except the wells don't look like wishing wells
And I wish you could have seen her dance
The way she soared across the floor
I wish you could have seen her dance
She did the flavo and the tango and the flamenco
I wish you could have seen her dance
The way she threw her hair through the air
And I wish you could have seen her dance
I asked
Are you an actress
She said
No
But do you think I'm good enough
She said
You look like you belong on
Monty python
Eric idle
She said
Do you wanna know what I do for work
I said
Sure
She had long blond hair
I said
Alright
She had long blond hair
She said
I'm a maid and a dancer
I've danced for three rock bands
And one of the bands
Even wrote a song about me
And I wish you could have seen her dance
I wish you could have seen her dance
I wish you could have seen her
Wish you could have seen her
Wish you could have seen her dance
