Lets Tango

"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"       ~~ Mark Daniel Sanders / Tia M. Sillers ~~

Superseded thought waves not bothering with romance.
Why should I care now completely free, I am going to dance. 
My cares are wild nymphs, escapees from worry no longer slaves.
Not bothering with romance, superseded thought waves

I am going to give my willpower a real fighting chance.
Blow my cares to the wind and be free, I am going to dance.	
Whenever it’s my time, I’ll survive all this til my final hour.
A real fighting chance, I am going to give my willpower.

I won’t take a single moment for granted my health to enhance.
Carefree as a bird, you guessed it, I am going to dance.
Don’t tell me I am weak, I am strong, my feet well planted.
My health to enhance, I won’t take a single moment for granted.

Wonders happen I won’t believe the worst, In this enormous expanse,
The world revolves around faith, I have my share and I am going to dance,
As they bring in the verdict, I can’t say it will matter, it’ just the first.
In this enormous expanse, wonders happen, I won’t believe the worst.

I am light on my feet, I won’t sit this one out. I am absorbed in a trance, 
Nothing can hurt me, I shall overcome, right now I am going to dance,
My word is survive, cant climb a mountain I will climb a hill, there’s no defeat
I won’t sit this one out I am absorbed in a trance, I am light on my feet.

Thank you sweet Laf. We all go through difficult times, and sitting it out, if we have the opportunity to do otherwise just doesn't cut it.. If its at all possible, we should dance ! Luv from Wen
