is the title of a song by Lee Ann Womack. Yes, it is a country and western tune. No, I'm not what you might call a fan of C&W music, but the lyrics to I Hope You Dance are simply beautiful, for lack of a better word.
Believe it or not, I wouldn't even know the words to this song, had it not been for the hubby, who brought them to my attention, for the first time, just yesterday morning. I'm not sure what made him start talking about this old show we used to watch together--Any Day Now. He said there was a song that accompanied one episode of the show that for some reason he always remembered. That song was/is I Hope You Dance by Lee Ann Womack. He went online, pulled up the lyrics of the song and printed them out for me.
The words to this song really do speak to me. If I didn't know any better, I'd say ole boy was trying to tell me something (smile). Anyway, I thought the words to Ms. Womack's song were inspirational enough to share in the SUNDAY BEST portion of the Old School Mix. I hope you enjoy them.
I Hope You Dance.

You know, a friend of mine told me about this song. When I heard it, I loved it. My firend siad that a friend of hers got married, and her parents dedicated this song to her. I thought that was beautiful. I love the line, "And when you have the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance." I just love it
Tiffany,
That is truly a wonderful line, isn't it? I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. Lori D.
