Leann 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 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.

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
Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin',
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',
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.

I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along,
Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone.)

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.

Dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance..
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along
Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone)

You knew one of the resident Daveheads had to pipe up eventually, right?

But first a little Pearl Jam:
from Black:
"I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be the sun, in somebody's else's sky, why oh why can't it be mine..."

And I DO have a great Dave Matthews cover of Black on mp3. lol

"Winter's cold spring erases , And the calm away by the storm is chasing. Everything good needs replacing, hope all these changes happen with you. In my life, never before have I ever so adored her eyes, her hair, everything she says. My delight you tickle me inside, touch my heart, my mind. No matter what's inside I give it to her, no need to satisfy my hunger, lost in her. While I spend these hours 5 senses reeling, with biggest steps I'm running After Her...I will run...after her" After Her

And all the lyrics to "I'll Back you Up." but especially--
I remember thinking
I'll go on forever only knowing
I'll see you again
But I know
The touch of you is so hard to remember
But like that touch I know no other
AND
And for sure
we have danced in the risk of each other
would you like to dance around the world with me?
AND
I remember thinking
Sometimes we walk
Sometimes we run away
But I know
No matter how fast we are running
Somehow we keep
Somehow we keep up with each other




I could keep going on, but I realize you'd all have me committed. LOL

:D

"So now I'm praying for the end of time, so hurry up and arrive cause if I've gotta spend another minute with you I don't think that I could really survive.

I'm praying for the end of time, so I can end my time with you."

In the hills, away from city strife.

Partners waltz, devoid of all romance.

Because the woman took a-lovin' over me
And just to gain her trust, I bought a microbus
Because I sold up all my personal property
A tight tie-dyed dress, she was a psychedelic mess
We toured to the north, south, east and west
We sold some mushroom tea, we sold some ecstacy
We sold nitrous, opium, acid, heroin and PCP
And now I hear the police coming after me" - Scarlet Begonias by Sublime

-Long Day by Matchbox Twenty

And finally...

"Here I am again,
Overwhelming feelings
A thousand miles away
From your ocean home
Part of me is near

Thoughts of what we were invade
The miles that stand between
We can't separate
Your all I hoped you'd become

Sister I see you
Dancing on the stage
Of memory
Sister I miss you

Fleeting visits pass
Still they satisfy
Reminders of the next
Overshadow goodbye
Our flames burn as one

Sister I see you
Dancing on the stage
Of memory
Sister I miss you

All I am begins with you
Thoughts of hope understood
Half of me breathes in you
Thoughts of love remain true

Here we are again saying goodbye
Still we fall asleep underneath the same sky
You're all I knew you'd become

Sister I see you
Dancing on the stage
Of memory
Sister I miss you

Entwined, you and I
Our souls speak from across the miles
Intertwined, you and I
Our blood flows from the same inside
Half of me, breathes in you
Thoughts of love remain true

I see you, I feel you
When I close my eyes
I see walking there...
I see you dancing in my mind"
-Sister by The Nixons

Frank Sinatra- My Way
 

And now, the end is near;And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, I'll say it clear,I'll state my case, of which I'm certain.
I've lived a life that's full.I've traveled each and ev'ry highway;
But more, much more than this,I did it my way.Regrets, I've had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,But more, much more than this,I did it my way.
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knewWhen I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;And did it my way.
I've loved, I've laughed and cried.I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,I find it all so amusing.To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,"No, oh no not me,I did it my way".
For what is a man, what has he got?If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -And did it my way!

Maybe you guys can help me. I love this song and I hear it on the radio and am dying which artist is singing it. It's a live performance and it's at least two guys. One I am pretty sure is Fred Durst. However, I don't think he is the main singer. It's somewhat slow and some of the lyrics are:


Cause I'm on the outside. I'm lookin in. I can see through you. See your true colors. Cause I you're ugly, ugly like me.


Can you tell me which band sings this please. Is is Staind with Fred Durst?

Thanks.

Its Staind.

OUTSIDE is the name of the song.

No Fred Durst.

yeah..it's staind

"And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance. "

Haha - alphachiohmy, an ex-girlfriend put that up as her away message after she dumped me - she said it was kinda her way of telling me to move on with my life...so whenever I see that or hear that song, I kinda have to laugh. :D

Thank you! I looked it up and there is a live performance recording of it with Fred Durst. I knew I was close with the artist/name of the song and now I will buy the CD. Thanks again everyone!

keeping in this line...
 

I'm looking for quotes for a shirt for a party.
Last year it was
"Reach out your hand if your cup be empty
If your cup is full may it be again"

I've got some I'm looking at, see if you know any other good quotes by any bands that fit in with the others, or just seem to be a good outdoor bandfest party thought, something you might have heard at woodstock...that line of quote, really

• Turns out not where but who you're with that really matters
  
  Drink your Health, Share your Wealth,
  
  Yesterday is Gone
  but Tomorrow is Forever
  
  If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight
  
  All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to arise
  All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to be free
  
  ..And if nothing can be done, We'll make the Best of What's Around
  
  The future is no place to place your better days
  
  is this real, or am I dreaming?
  
  And for a moment, this good time, would never end.
