Dance

Story Behind The Song

My nine year old daughter wanted me to write a song she could dance to. I wrote the song while she danced with the sun shining through the sky lights. She looked beautiful.

Song Description

When we are young we know how to dance freely. Society and outside pressure can be a heavy weight that pushes us to conform. This song is sad in recognizing this, but still hopeful that we can still have the courage to dance.

Lyrics

Dance
by Katie Burns

Go on and dance
One foot in front

Let it go round
Reach to the stars

Dance

It's hard to be yourself when
They're pushing on
You tried to be free
And make your own me

And Dance
Go on and Dance

Be beautiful, be beautiful
Be beautiful, be beautiful
Be beautiful

Go on and dance
All their thoughts
They can't get you now
You turn around

Be beautiful, be beautiful,
Be beautiful, be beautiful
Be beautiful
