Lyrics
Dance The Dance
Verse 1:
These are the best days of our lives
These are the best of the best times
It?s a gift from high above
Like a perfect summer day
Sailing our lives over unchartered waters
Searching for treasure and hoping to find clues along the way.
Verse 2:
We look up to each other you and I
We can even fly
We are two birds of a feather you and I
There?s a star that shines within you
It lights up the night sky
It burns brighter than the sun on the equator.
Chorus:
Follow your star and live your dreams
These are the best days of our lives
Stand tall and say what you mean
These are the best days of our lives
Dance the dance as you are shown
Until the day you can call the dance your own.
Verse 3:
You hold the power and the future is your hands
You can rock a mountain if that?s you or
Steal the breeze from the wings of a butterfly
But listen to what I?ve got to say to you
Sometimes it?s not what you want to hear
My words fly out the window and disappear
You can be so close,
But your eyes can be a thousand miles from here.
Verse 4:
Rain from hell couldn?t come between us
These are the best days of our lives
Distance or time will never separate us
These are the best days of our lives
Dance the dance as you are shown
Until the day you can call the dance your own.
Verse 5:
These are the best days of our lives
These are the best of the best times
Follow your star and live your dreams
These are the best days of our lives
Stand tall and say what you mean
These are the best days of our lives
Dance the dance as you are shown
Until the day you can call the dance your own.
These are the best days of our lives
These are the best days of our lives
These are the best days of our lives?
