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 by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me 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 never fear those mountains in the distance 
Never settle for the path of least resistance 
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking,
Lovin' might be a mistake
But it's worth making 
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter
When you come close to selling 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 

Time is a real and constant motion always rolling us along...Tell me who wants to look back on their youth 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 you'll give faith a fighting chance
and when you get the choice to sit it out or dance....DANCE!
