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 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 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)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

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
Dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
I hope you dance
(Where those years have gone)

(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

Shaun, I've been thinking about you lately, and I've been thinking about the past, and I know there is a lot between us, but there is so much left unsaid. I'm going to say that our relationship made me blossom a little bit into the person I am today and I thank you for that. Thank you for welcoming me into your world and your kind heart made me feel so comfortable whenever I was with you. You are still in my heart, and will forever be in my memories. As I look back through my memories, some of the best times I have ever had, I shared with you. I will always cherish our friendship. Even though we arent friends anymore, I just want you to know that I cannot hate you because we've been through so much. We had a lot and I was so sad to see it go, but sometimes things arent mean to be, and if they are, they always come back to you. I'm sorry for causing you so much pain, but in the end, I hope you dance. Until next time...xoxo elle*
