..... there are little eyes upon you
and they're watching every day
there are little eyes that quickly
take in every move you make
there are little hands all eager
to do anything you do
and a little girl who's dreaming
of the day she'll be like you.

you're the little girl's idol
you're the wisest of the wise
in her little mind about you
no suspicions ever rise
she believes in you devoutly
holds all you say and do
she will say and do in your way
when she's all grown up like you

there's a wide-eyed little girl
who believes you're always right
and her eyes are always open
and she watches day and night
you are setting an example
every day in all you do
for the little girl who's waiting
to grow up and be like you.

..... there's a little bit of insanity in dancing that does everyone a lot of good.

..... dance isn't just about fancy footwork. it requires grace, discipline, and major muscles!

..... dear angel, ever at my side
be there today, my feet to guide
help me dance high, and light, and free,
so everyone will be proud of me.
may the judges be fair and the stages be spacious,
in winning and losing let me be gracious,
so that every dance i'll remember with pride
and angel, please keep my shoelaces tied.

..... dance for yourself. if someone else understands, good. if not, no matter. go right on doing what interests you, and do it until it stops interesting you.
