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

You're gonna have to learn to let go

You got to sing like you don't need the money

Love like you'll never get hurt
You got to dance like nobody's watchin'
It's gotta come from the heart
If you want it to work

Now here is the one thing I keep forgettin'

When everything is falling apart

In life as in love  you know I need to remember
There's such a thing as trying too hard
You got to sing like you don't need the money

Love like you'll never get hurt
You got to dance like nobody's watchin'
It's gotta come from the heart
If you want it to work
You got to sing sometimes like you don't need the money
Love sometimes like you'll never get hurt
You got to dance
Dance  dance like nobody's watchin'
It's gotta come from the heart if you want it to work
