Lyrics

[00:04.37] .
[00:25.90] I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
[00:31.61] You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
[00:38.18] May you never take one single breath for granted,
[00:44.44] God forbid love ever leave you empty handed.
[00:50.40] I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
[00:57.14] Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
[01:03.65] Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
[01:10.46] And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
[01:15.16] .
[01:16.29] I hope you dance
[01:22.72] I hope you dance
[01:26.73] .
[01:29.29] I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
[01:35.61] Never settle for the path of least resistance,
[01:41.99] Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin',
[01:48.43] Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin'.
[01:55.45] Don't let some careless heart leave you bitter,
[02:00.95] When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
[02:07.71] Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
[02:14.34] And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
[02:19.90] .
[02:20.27] I hope you dance
[02:26.84] I hope you dance
[02:33.09] I hope you dance
[02:40.13] I hope you dance
[02:42.45]
[02:43.84] .
[02:46.92] I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
[02:52.23] Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
[02:58.64] Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
[03:05.55] And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
[03:13.04] Dance, dance, dance
[03:22.22] .
[03:24.09] I hope you dance
[03:30.76] I hope you dance
[03:36.62] I hope you dance
[03:43.39] I hope you dance
[03:55.56]
