Song Lyrics
-
Written by Melody Sparks, Billy Smiley, and Violet Sparks
("Dance then, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance")
It’s all in the rhythm and melody
Dreaming of you is my destiny
Dancing and setting my spirit free
Come see the world with me
It’s all in the soul of the heart that soars
Over the mountains and through the fjords
This is the child of my memory
This is the me I see
I feel the wind upon my skin
Follow where it brings me in
Why hold back when you want to fly
There’s no one else than you who’ll try
To the place I
Meet the blue the sky
Lead me there where I can fly
It’s all in the rhythm and melody
Dreaming of you is my destiny
Dancing and setting my spirit free
Come see the world with me
It’s all in the soul of the heart that soars
Over the mountains and through the fjords
This is the child of my memory
This is the me I see
I see myself in every dawn
Searching for the evening song
Come with me to a place unknown
Visions in our mind have roamed
This is where your
Dreams were made for
Breaking free from dust to gold
It’s all in the rhythm and melody
Dreaming of you is my destiny
Dancing and setting my spirit free
Come see the world with me
It’s all in the soul of the heart that soars
Over the mountains and through the fjords
This is the child of my memory
This is the me I see
("Dance then, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance")
It’s all in the rhythm and melody
Dreaming of you is my destiny
Dancing and setting my spirit free
Come see the world with me
("Dance then, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance")
This is the child of my memory
This is the me I see

There’s a blank page in front of you
As we’re filling in our lives
Many pictures frame your point of view
All you need to do is try
Seasons may come
Seasons may go
Don’t turn the page ‘cause nobody knows
The lines that you draw
From deep in your heart
May turn out to be an improbable charm
Every moment traced into time
Has a purposeful design
It may not yet come to be revealed
But it will soon come to life!
Seasons may come
Seasons may go
Don’t turn the page ‘cause nobody knows,
The lines that you draw
From deep in your heart
May turn out to be an improbable charmA time for keeping, a time to let go
Time for seeking, a time to know
Ooh
Seasons may come
Seasons may go
Don’t turn the page 'cause nobody knows
The lines that you draw
From deep in your heart
May turn out to be an improbable charm -

Open up your heart
Find your journey’s start
Gently lead the way
Find what your heart wants to say
Where do I go
Who do I run to
Every day I am still afraid
How will I know
The journey I’ll walk through
Will I be brave
I’ll be there someday
Open up your heart (Da dum, da dum, da ‘n da da dum)
Find your journey’s start (Can I open my heart)
Gently lead the way (Da dum, da dum, da ‘n da da dum)
Find what your heart wants to say
Open up your dreams (Da dum, da dum, da ‘n da da dum)
Give yourself the wings
Sous le dôme épais où le blanc jasmin (Under the dome of white jasmine)
A la rose s'assemblе (where the rosеs are assembled)
Sur la rive en fleurs (on the bank covered with flowers)
Riant au matin (Laughing through the morning)
Doucement glissons (Let us descend together)
De son flot charmant (Gently gliding)
Suivons le courant fuyant (on its charming swells)
Dans l'onde frémissante (The shining waves)
What did I find
Things to hold onto
All that I am
Not just in my mind
Open up your heart (Da dum, da dum, da ‘n da da dum)
Find your journey’s start (Can I open my heart)
Gently lead the way (Da dum, da dum, da ‘n da da dum)
Find what your heart wants to say
Open up your dreams (Da dum, da dum, da ‘n da da dum)
Give yourself the wings (Will I follow my dreams)
Gently lead the way (Da dum, da dum, da ‘n da da)
To all that your heart longs to be -

Everything is always on the move
Time is something you can’t afford to lose
If simple things can bring you back
Like sounds of the evening when skies turn to black
There’s a certain path you’ll find
Leads to a place within your mind
How does one turn from the noise
Voices saying that you don’t have a choice
Oh who says that a new tradition
Will take all the mem’ries we’ve been through?
Can't have any expectations
Change your view, and get ready to experience the new
The new
Missing my old childhood fantasies
I thought all these things would never cease
Change doesn’t have to have a price
What you’re seeing just might be paradise
Oh who says that a new tradition
Will take all the mem’ries we’ve been through?
Can't have any expectations
Change your view, and get ready to experience the new
The new
Things are so different now
I don’t remember how
I used to fear of truly letting go
As time is passing by
I still hold on to why
These simple things will help us all to know
Who says that a new tradition
Will take all the mem’ries we’ve been through?
Whoa
What’s gone is not forgotten
Who really sees the future that we’re in?
Can't have any expectations
change your view, and get ready to experience the new
The new
The new

The rain falling softly on the door
My days are a silent empty score
The clock passes time unnoticed but still
The memory of what was past feels real
Oh all of these feelings come rushing within
Like I have to start all over to begin
All the sunshine feels hidden away
Clouds fill the sky, with questions of why
All the rainbows won’t come out to play
They whisper out loud, “we’ll bring a new day.”
Ahh
Bum bum
Your voice seems to vanish from the room
Your melody echoes in the moon
The indigo skies come before the dawn
It still seems so long since you’ve been gone
All the sunshine feels hidden away
Clouds fill the sky, with questions of why
All the rainbows won’t come out to play
They whisper out loud, “we’ll bring a new day.”
Ahh
Ooh
Bum bum
Bum, Bum
Bum, Bum

Stories that you have heard before
Were we made for something more
Maybe our steps should guide the way
Rather than doing what they say
Will we settle for the common goal
Or will we take the chance to reach unreachable
Everyone’s searching
Everyone’s yearning to belong to
Someone who holds you
Ever believes in who you are
Let’s travel the long road
Knowing that nowhere is too far
Follow the romance running
To that Distant Star
Love is not just you and I
There’s always more than meets the eye
Meet me where I am, my heart, my soul
We can take that chance to reach unreachable
Everyone’s searching
Everyone’s yearning to belong to
Someone who holds you
Ever believes in who you are
Let’s travel the long road
Knowing that nowhere is too far
Follow the romance running
To that Distant Star
There is no
Fear in the
Love that you can take a hold of
Perfect love
Drove out the
Worries we have on our own,
Cause we're not alone!
Everyone’s (Searching for someone and)
Everyone’s (yearning for love you can hold to)
Someone who (gives you the strength to be)
Ever loves (who you are, who you’ll be, who you see)
In your life, in your heart, in your dreams
Let’s travel the long road
Knowing that nowhere is too far
Follow the romance running
To that Distant Star
Distant Star
Distant Star

May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh, how far you are from home
Mornie utulie
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie
A promise lives within you now
May it be the shadow's call will fly away
May it be your journey on to light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun
Mornie utulie
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie
A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now

Twenty-four oceans, twenty-four skies
Twenty-four failures and twenty-four tries
Twenty-four finds me in twenty-fourth place
With twenty-four drop outs at the end of the day
Life is not what I thought it was twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You'
And I'm not who I thought I was twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You'
There's twenty-four reasons to admit that I'm wrong
With all my excuses still twenty-four strong
See, I'm not copping out
Not copping out, not copping out
When you're raising the dead in me
Oh, oh, I am the second man
Oh, oh, I am the second man now
Oh, I am the second man now
And you're raising these
Twenty-four voices with twenty-four hearts
All of my symphonies in twenty-four parts
But I want to be one today centered and true
I'm singing 'Spirit take me up in arms with You'
You're raising the dead in me
Oh, oh, I am the second man
Oh, oh, I am the second man now
Oh, I am the second man now
And you're raising the dead in me,
Oh you’re raising the dead in me
I wanna see miracles to see the world change
Wrestled the angel for more than a name
For more than a feeling, for more than a cause
I'm singing 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You
And you're raising the dead in me
Oh, oh, I am the second man
Oh, oh, I am the second man now
Oh, I am the second man now
And you're raising the dead in me
Oh, oh, I am the second man
Oh, oh, I am the second man now
Oh, I am the second man now
And you're raising the dead in me
Oh you’re raising the dead in me

I'm so blue I almost threw
Away the notes you sent
But those words that swirl in blurs
Are read through tears I've wept
Can't stop crying
Won’t stop trying
To do
Whatever it takes
Hold my hand
Please say you'll stand there
When I tell you the truth
Whatever it takes
We still say that we're okay
Because we are in love
But I fear it won’t be clear
If things aren't good enough
What I see
Is in this dream
Of you and me at the church
Sharing vows and
Knowing how we have ended the search
Whatever it takes
Whatever it takes
Whatever it takes
And to think I'd rearrange all of my dreams
Don't slip away
Will you take hold of my heart living apart
from your embrace
Mm-mm, Mm-mm
Thought I could be your saving grace
Ooh-ooh, Ooh-ooh
Please don't lose heart
Whatever it takes
Whatever it takes, ooh
Whatever it takes
Ooooh

Chase down the higher visions
Put aside the world’s opinions
There is no truth in all their fancy words
Line up my deep emotions
Match up my mind in motion
Lead to a clearer picture I will turn
I will turn and find my way again
(To you) And away from confusion
(And renew) the thoughts in my head!
Not gonna last if I’m pedaling so fast
Without a goal I can reach to
Not gonna let myself forget
All that I know to be true
‘Cause I won’t settle for less
Go back inside your memory
Those things were not so scary
Why can’t the next decision be the same
Got through the hardest seasons
Inside you found a reason
Led to a stronger version you could claim
You can overcome the circumstance
(And live through) Give yourself a second chance
(You’re renewed) Oh I am renewed!
Not gonna last if I’m pedaling so fast
Without a goal I can reach to
Not gonna let myself forget
All that I know to be true
‘Cause I won’t settle for less
I won't settle for less
Take a step (Take a step)
Won’t regret (Won’t regret)
To stand up for the truth (Take a step)
Take a step
Take a step (Take a step)
What is truth (What is truth)
If it doesn’t break a sweat (Take a step)
Take a step
Who are you (Who are you)
Look around (Look around)
Is there something bigger?
Take a step
Break a sweat
Who are you serving?
Not gonna last if I pedal too fast
Without a goal I can reach to
Not gonna let myself forget
All that I know to be true
Time to hold fast to happiness that lasts
This is what we’re made to do
‘Cause I won’t settle for less
And I won’t second guess
No, I won’t settle for less! -

I wish I wrote it down
Try and not forget
Try to keep the memories in my mind forever
It lifts me off the ground
All the things I treasure
Keep it in
I wish wrote it down
Riding with two wheels for the very first time
A distant memory, but it was still mine
Moment of fear melting away
Wish I could re-live that feeling someday
I wish I wrote it down
Try and not forget
Try to keep the memories in my mind forever
It lifts me off the ground
All the things I treasure
Keep it in
I wish wrote it down
Ooh, wish I wrote it down
All he said before whispering “I love you”
He told me all I ever wanted to be true
That single moment now may seem a little hazy
But the feeling drove me crazy
I wish I wrote it down
Try and not forget
Try to keep the memories in my mind forever
It lifts me off the ground
All the things I treasure
Keep it in
I wish I wrote it….
Down, write it down, write it down
To remember who I used to be
I hold onto you, onto you
Will I remember?

There's a pattern surrounding you
Through the highs and storms
It points back to you
It's a second chance
Redeem that forgotten past
What once was your dream has come back
Full circle of love
Full circle of life
Full circle of dreams
Full circle
There's a heartbeat
behind every song
A melody - it's there all along
Though your life has changed
There's always a chord that plays
Over and over and over again
Sweet return
Full circle of love
Full circle of life
Full circle of dreams
Full circle
In the lowest days
When you're held in chains
A turning point you never saw coming
Someone carries you (someone carries you)
As you cry for who
you want to be again
Full circle of love
Full circle of life
Full circle of dreams
Full circle of faith
Full circle
Full circle
