Karaoké The Chance Julie Roberts

I found a book that my mama kept filled with secrets she hid

And in a dusty old attic one mornin' I read

About a woman I never met who had dreams just like mine

With every page that I turned her words came alive

Wish I could roll out of town like a run away train

I'll do as I dare let them call me insane

I'll never sit on the sidelines of life

I'll dance every dance if I just had the chance

A tear fell on that faded page 'cos this was somebody else

And not the mama I knew who never thought of herself

But the times they were different then

And lines just didn't get crossed

And these words that she wrote they somehow got lost

Wish I could roll out of town like a run away train

I'll do as I dare let them call me insane

I'll never sit on the sidelines of life

I'll dance every dance if I just had the chance

The chance that she never had is now the gift that is mine

And out here on this road

I'm makin' up for lost time

Yeah I am my mother's child and tonight in this car

I've got her words in my suitcase and her dreams in my heart

As I roll out of town like a run away train

I'll do as I dare let them call me insane

Never sit on the sidelines of life

I'll dance every dance while I still have the chance

I'll never sit on the sidelines in life

I'll dance every dance while I still have the chance
