What you can achieve with the right attitude
What separates you from the rest
You do the thing you love the most
Don't forget to dance, no, no, no
As you pass them by they whisper
Don't forget to smile
But that's no reason to just stop living
And what you love to do the most?
Don't forget to smile
You walk down the street and all the young punks whistle at you
And all of you friends are either married, vanished or just left alone
I bet you danced a good one in your time
I'd really make sure the next one would be mine
And if this were a party
Even that you know that you could be their mother
Don't forget to dance, no, no, no
But it can't feel as cold as what you're feeling inside
Don't forget to dance, no, no, no
I say that you dance real close
Forget it for a while
Don't forget to dance, no, no, no
'Cause darling, darling
A nice bit of old just goes to show
Don't forget to dance, no, no, no
That's no excuse to just give in to a sad and lonely heart
Yes, you with the broken heart
Their remarks one to another and you give them the eye
Forget it for a while
Forget it for a while
And when they ask me how you dance
Don't forget to dance, no, no, no
