When I'm up through the night
I can't turn down the noise, tear all the worries
Out of my mind
'Bout who I'm supposed to be, I start to believe
I can't get it right
Remember the days I let slip away?
They were simpler times

Momma told me, "Before you leave
If there's only one thing you remember from me"
Child, when you're out on your own
A million miles from home
Feeling the weight of the world
On your shoulders
Child, don't forget who you are
Don't lose your head or your heart
I'll bet my life on your stars
You'll be dancing
Dancing on the moon, I bet my life
You'll be dancing on the moon, I bet my life
You'll be dancing on the moon, I bet my life
You'll be dancing on the moon

Maybe my compass was wrong
And I'm still on my way
Closer each day to where I belong
I'm still rolling the dice, praying sometimes
It don't last that long
I'm losing my faith, I'm walking away
From what you knew all along
Momma told me, "Before you leave
If there's only one thing you remember from me"
Child, when you're out on your own
A million miles from home
Feeling the weight of the world
On your shoulders
Child, don't forget who you are
Don't lose your head or your heart
I'll bet my life on your stars
You'll be dancing
Dancing on the moon (I bet my life)
You'll be dancing on the moon (I bet my life)
You'll be dancing on the moon (I bet my life)
You'll be dancing on the- (I bet my life)
