My First Dance
I
went to my first dance
Hoping
I would have a chance,
At
meeting some really nice guy
Who
might think I was pretty and not notice how shy.
There
were lots of guys who noticed me,
But
I was too shy and backwards to see.
If
someone had told me it was true,
I
would have probably gone home without meeting you.
Being
so shy was hard for me,
But
you helped me to really see
All
the good things that life has to give,
If
you will just let your hair down and learn how to live.
Live
life to the fullest everyday
And
get on your knees at night and pray
To
thank God for letting you see each new day,
And
the courage to live it in the right way.
I will
always remember you
And
the dance that you helped me get through,
I
will try from now on not to be so shy
And
maybe someday, I'll meet another really nice guy.
