I Hope You Dance

1 Verse:
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

1 Pre - Chorus:
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

Chorus:
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

2 Verse:
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'

2 Pre - Chorus:
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

Chorus: x2
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

Pre - Chorus:
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

Chorus:
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
