When I was a young girl, my daddy told me

A lesson he learned, it was a long time ago

If you want to have someone to hold onto

Youre gonna have to learn to let go



You have to sing (sing) like you dont need the money

Love (love) like youll never get hurt

You gotta dance (dance) like nobodys watching

Its got to come from the heart if you want it to work



Now here is the one thing I keep forgetting

When everything is falling apart

In life theres enough no I need to remember

Theres such a thing as trying too hard



You have to sing (sing) like you dont need the money

Love (love) like youll never get hurt

You gotta dance, dance, dance like nobodys watching

Its got to come from the heart if you want it to work



You have to sing sometimes like you dont need the money

Love sometimes like youll never get hurt

You gotta dance, dance, dance like nobodys watching

Its got to come from the heart if you want it to work
