I hope you dance

[lilitalienboi16]

This song is absolutely breath taking. It's an older song but every time i hear it i just kind of have this sense of awe about life that takes me over. I hope you guys enjoy this song as much as i do!

Lee Ann Womack - 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 by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me 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
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking
Lovin' might be a mistake
But it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart
Leave you bitter
When you come close to selling 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
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me 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
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
I hope you dance
(Where those years have gone)

(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

Hi Alex,
This is a really good song!  I dedicated it to my daughter when she was a really little girl, before drugs and divorce stepped in to leave it's ugly mark on her.  Even now it speaks to me of faith and hope and love...We parents are sort of sappy that way sometimes.  Thanks for sharing this song !

hopefully this doesn't sound too creepy, but, when i first heard that song a while back, i decided that it is one of the songs i want played at my memorial service when it is my time to pass away from this earth awaiting the Day of resurrection.  it is indeed a beautiful song.

Claudia, that's not at all creepy - I'm in the funeral industry and it's always interesting to hear the songs people chose and the reasons behind them - this would be a beautiful song for a memorial service!

thanks bbj

I have my "wake" c.d. of my favorite tunes that I want to be played at the party! My husband and best friend have their copies. God love him... my sweet Michael will need her to help him. So back to the note about the song being on your funeral list... it is on my "Jennie's dead " Party List so I don't think it is morbid or anything!!

[Jennie]

Well...you know it's coming so they may as well have a party and laugh at all my goofy ways! I wonder if I should cook the food for them and just freeze it?? Make it even more convenient for them!

[Ninny]

Now Jennie, that just cracked me up!! You know it's just the way it is..you have to do everything for 'em!! haha!! I've been wondering how you are, girl!  Nice to see you still have your sense of humor!! 
Kathy

[Jennie]

A sense of humor is about all I have left now! Well... I do have a great "Jennie's Dead" c.d. and people I love!!!!

[Ninny]
