lirik lagu four bitchin' babes - as close to flying

her arms are outstretched in a dancer’s pose
her gaze is sure and steady now
she has pointed her toes
the blades of her skates gleam like platinum

this photo was snapped in ’36
her moment in the sun
her medals and trophies and ribbons on display
with handmade beaded outfits that were the fashion of her day

she skated ’round the world
she put on quite a show
she came as close to flying
as one could ever know

the camera caught them
in mid-air in 1961
here they look invincible
so full of life and fun

so young and brave and hopeful
as they take that mighty leap
into the unforgiving void
so silent and so deep

the world was shocked and saddened
by the unexpected fall
but their smiles are framed forever here
on this museum wall

they skated ’round the world
they put on quite a show
they came as close to flying
as two could ever know

a hundred yards away on the broadmoor rink
a tiny blur of a skater pushes herself to the brink
of exhaustion and delirium as she gave it one more try
and for one fleeting moment she can fly
oh look, she can fly

now it’s nighttime in new york
i’m on the rink in central park
there are no olympians
skating in the dark

but ’round and ’round we go
to a gershwin tune
oh, it feels so good to be gliding here
beneath a winter moon

i wish that i could jump
i wish that i could spin
i wish that i could always stay
in this mood i’m in

i am skating ’round the rink
i am racing with the snow
this is as close to flying
as i have come to know

i am skating ’round the rink
i am racing with the snow
this is as close to flying
as i have come to know
as close to flying
as close to flying
this is as close to flying
