I wrote this song about an amazing woman I met at a dance. I wanna be like her some day!

lyrics

Dances Like She’s 17
© 1999 Mich Lewis-Sorensen

Eyes of wisdom, hair of silver
Face with laughter creased and seamed
Bent with age, but full of spirit
Dances like she’s seventeen

I told her, “I love to watch you”
She asked me, “What do you see?”
The beauty of a shining spirit
Loving life, joyful and free

You can keep your super models
Cling to youth with beauty cream
The most beautiful woman I know is 80
And dances like she’s ….17

Arms floating on the rhythm
Dance steps from a bygone day
Spinning lights, her smile widens
I want to be like her someday

I’m not gonna waste my old age
Parked in front of a T.V.
This world needs more grey haired ladies
Dancing like they’re seventeen

You can keep your super models
Cling to youth with beauty cream
The most beautiful woman I know is 80
And dances like she’s ….17

Instrumental

You can keep your super models
Who cling to youth with beauty cream
The most beautiful woman I know is 80
And dances like she’s seventeen

You can keep your super models
You can keep your beauty queens
The most beautiful woman I know is 80
And dances like she’s 17
Dances like she’s……. 17
