If, I could stand on a mountain, and I can see as far as I can see.
If, I could swim in the ocean, and have the waves rush over me.
If, at night I could hear the wolf howling, as it echoes through the trees.
If, I could run through the forest, and have the leaves crushed under my feet.
If, there’s nothing holding me, then this – must be what it feels like – to be free.

From the clicking of my heels, to the tipping of my hat,
To the tip of my tongue, to the beating of my heart.
As the drums keep playing and the room keeps swaying,
Then the – bass and horns come alive.
It’s music to my ears, right down my spine to my heels.
You just have to get up and dance, and when the room keeps swaying,
You know it’s time when you get that feeling,
As the music vibrates off the ceiling, making sounds you never heard before.
You just have to get up and dance.
Can’t you feel the rhythm, can’t you feel the vibes.
Room is swaying and the band is live, and the moon is full and the crowds making room,
So keep those hips swaying as the band keeps playing,
You have to get up and dance.

If I could turn back the hands of time,
Oh – the change that I would make.
There would be no grey skies, only sunny,
Bees would make more honey,
Your garden would have only red roses.
As the years passed by I noticed the twinkle in your eyes are fading,
I know you may walk a little slower, but I know you’re a little wiser.
So, when it comes to you my dear,
I wouldn’t change a thing.
You’re my rock, you’re my everything.

Look for the rainbow after the Storm, then you’ll find a pot of gold,
This may be a myth so I’ve been told. But this is one thing I know for sure,
When I look into my mother’s eyes past the tears, and past the Soul,
I know I’ll find a heart of gold.
So, don’t go chasing rainbows after the storm,
Just look into your mother’s eyes, and you’ll find she has a heart of gold.
This is what I know for sure, mothers have a heart of gold.

LIFE’S HIGH HURDLES
Life’s high hurdles are not put in your way to make you stop.
Life’s high hurdles are put in your way to teach you to stop, take three steps then hop.
