Tess Henley Lyrics
"Part Of My Dance"

I stepped out into the street,
And my feet slipped out from under me.
I thought that it was a dream,
So I took a deep breath and counted to three.
City dirt is all over me,
I tore a hole in my brand new jeans,
So I went ahead and ripped the right knee,
And I strutted my stuff,
And rocked them things like that's how they were meant to be.

(Chorus)
I,
I might trip and stumble but,
That ain't gonna keep me from,
Keep me from getting up
I,
I might lose my stance
but that's my chance,
To make it part, part of my dance
Part of my dance, dance, dance

I kept a move past Pier 62,
You were the only one in my view,
On the dock everyday with your crew,
Oooh, you're the finest thing I ever knew.
I saw you look and my heart almost flew.
You waved and smiled, and I waved back at you.
Then the corner barista girl, she waved too,

So I ran my fingers through my hair,
And I played it cool

(Chorus)
I,
I might trip and stumble but,
That ain't gonna keep me from,
Keep me from getting up
I,
I might lose my stance
but that's my chance,
To make it part,

(Bridge)
And I know,
No one wants to make mistakes
And some of us can't seem to get it right.
But I know,
We all gonna have our days
And if it isn't mine I'll still be looking for that light
(I'll still be looking for that light if I don't get it right)

(Repeat Chorus)
Oh you gotta make it part,
Part of my dance,
Hoo, that's what I say hey,
I'm gonna make it,
yeah yeah yeah,
To make it part, part of my dance
