I hope you
never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when
you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
I hope you
never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances but they're worth taking
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out, reconsider
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
And when
you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

Lyrics from the song 'I hope you dance' by Lee Ann Womack
Beautifully crafted post juxtaposing the song lyrics (love it!) and scenes from Richard Armitage's career!
ReplyDeleteYour wonderful post moved me to tears. I've always loved this song so listened to it on my phone while looking back at those amazing characters he has brought to life. Whatever choices Richard makes in the future, whether they be for his life or career, that is what I would say to him; "I hope you dance!"
