The song is about the singer reflecting his mother’s advice to remain optimistic and not give up at life’s difficulties.
[Verse 1]
Mama says truth is all that matters
Lying and deceiving is sin
Drifting through a world that's torn and tattered
Every thought I have don't mean a thing
[Chorus]
Don't stop, don't stop the dance
(No) More music (Don't stop the dance)
[Verse 2]
Mama says love is all that matters
Beauty should be deeper than your skin
Living for the moment, lips and lashes
Will I ever find my way again?
[Chorus]
Don't stop, don't stop the dance
(No) More music (Don't stop the dance)
Don't stop, don't stop the dance
[Verse 3]
Mama says only stormy weather
Don't know why there's no sun in the sky
Footsteps in the dark come together
Got to keep on moving or I'll die
[Chorus]
Don't stop, don't stop the dance
(No) More music (Don't stop the dance)
Don't stop, don't stop the dance
(No) More music (Don't stop the dance)
Don't stop, don't stop the dance
