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 youĄŻll give faith a fighting chance
and when you get the choice to sit out or dance
I hope you danceĄ­i hope you dance
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
never settle for the path of least resistance
livinĄŻ might mean takinĄŻ chances but theyĄŻre worth takinĄŻ
lovinĄŻ might be a mistake but itĄŻs worth makinĄŻ
donĄŻt let some hell bent heart leave you bitter
when you come close to sellinĄŻ 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 danceĄ­i hope you dance
(time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along)
i hope you danceĄ­i 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 youĄŻll give faith a fighting chance
and when you get the choice to sit out ot dance
I hope you danceĄ­i hope you dance
(time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along)
i hope you danceĄ­i hope you dance
(tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder, where those years have gone)
