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 it 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 it out or dance. I hope you dance....I hope you dance. I hope you dance....I hope you dance. (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along, 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 it out or dance. Dance....I hope you dance. I hope you dance....I hope you dance. I hope you dance....I hope you dance.. (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone) A Little Past Little Rock
I had to leave my life in Dallas That town will always be you In every crowd, on every corner, Every face I'd see you So with nothing more than a tank of gas I drove away without looking back And I guess that's how I got where I am Going anywhere as fast as I can Now I'm a little past Little Rock Further down the line Too soon to know what's up ahead Too late to change my mind I've got to keep my heart out of this And both hands on the wheel I'm learning more with every mile It's a lonely stretch of blacktop Out into the blue Don't know where I'll go Or what I'll do I'm a little past Little Rock, But a long way from over you These headlights on the highway Disappear into the dark And if I could have it my way I'd go back to where you are Oh, but I can't turn this thing around And nothing short of breaking down Is gonna get me off this road I'm on But I'm still a far cry from gone But I'm a little past Little Rock Further down the line Too soon to know what's up ahead Too late to change my mind I've got to keep my heart out of this And both hands on the wheel I'm learning more with every mile Just how leaving feels It's a lonely stretch of blacktop Out into the blue Don't know where I'll go Or what I'll do I'm a little past Little Rock, But a long way from over you I'm a little past Little Rock But a long way from over you |
I'll Think of a Reason Later
I heard he was gonna marry some girl from Denver Then my sister came over, had the Sunday paper with her There was the girl on the social page Lookin' in love and all engaged We decided she don't take a very good picture It may be my family's redneck nature Rubbin' off, bringin' out unladylike behavior It sure ain't Christian to judge a stranger But I don't like her She may be an angel who spends all winter Bringin' the homeless blankets and dinner A regular Nobel peace prize winner But I really hate her, I'll think of a reason later I drew horns and blacked out her tooth with a marker Childish, yes, but she made such a thin little target I couldn't be happier on my own But I've got the slightest of a jealous bone And seein' her with him tends to enlarge it It may be my family's redneck nature Rubbin' off, bringin' out unladylike behavior It sure ain't Christian to judge a stranger But I don't like her She may be an angel who spends all winter Bringin' the homeless blankets and dinner A regular Nobel peace prize winner But I really hate her, I'll think of a reason later Inside her head may lay all the answers For curing diseases from baldness to cancer Salt of the earth and a real good dancer But I really hate her, I'll think of a reason later |
