lyrics
dance all these foreign moves you're making
can't make no sense
points and pirouettes suggesting
more complicated steps
but I know it's just the artistry of movement
how angles curves relate
the chemistry of moving ever closer
and balancing the weight
well I'm sitting still
while I'm spinning out in space
and just for a minute it
puts me in my place
dance and some are more familiar
like the changing of the guard
a summer swim, a chess game just beginning
kids playing in the yard
dance like the planets in rotation
the ebb and flow of tides
lying on our backs gazing out at the dance of
the stars and satellites
dance the one I knew by
just being of the earth
I've practiced moves that I could make with you since
the moment of my birth
well I'm sitting still...
can't make no sense
points and pirouettes suggesting
more complicated steps
but I know it's just the artistry of movement
how angles curves relate
the chemistry of moving ever closer
and balancing the weight
well I'm sitting still
while I'm spinning out in space
and just for a minute it
puts me in my place
dance and some are more familiar
like the changing of the guard
a summer swim, a chess game just beginning
kids playing in the yard
dance like the planets in rotation
the ebb and flow of tides
lying on our backs gazing out at the dance of
the stars and satellites
dance the one I knew by
just being of the earth
I've practiced moves that I could make with you since
the moment of my birth
well I'm sitting still...

Sonya Hunter San Francisco, California
With six albums to her credit and a career spanning decades, Sonya Hunter is steeped in the art of songwriting. One journalist mused “Hunter makes music that is both elegant and hypnotic, weaving tales of urban frustration and mixing word play with wisdom.” Her unique sound, which collaborator Erik Pearson infuses with textural guitars and vocals, gives a nod to country, jazz, and 60’s folk rock. ... more
