I Hope You Dance

 I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
 You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
 May you never take one single breath for granted
 God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
 Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
 Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
 And when you get the choice to sit out or dance

 I hope you dance' I hope you dance

 I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
 Never settle for the path of least resistance
 Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin'
 Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin'
 Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter
 When you come close to sellin' out reconsider
 Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
 And when you get the choice to sit out or dance

 I hope you dance' I hope you dance
 (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along)
 I hope you dance' I hope you dance
 (Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder, where those years have gone)

 I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
 Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
 And when you get the choice to sit out or dance

 I hope you dance' I hope you dance
 (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along)
 I hope you dance' I hope you dance
 (Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder, where those years have gone)
