Lyrics

[Verse 1]

First when there's nothing

But a slow glowing dream

That your fear seems to hide

Deep inside your mind

[Verse 2]

All alone, I have cried

Silent tears full of pride

In a world made of steel

Made of stone

[Verse 3]

Where I hear the muse

Close my eyes, feel the rhythm

Wrap around

Take a hold of my heart

[Verse 4]

What a feeling

Being's believing

I can have it all

Now I'm dancing for my life

[Verse 5]

Take your passion

And make it happen

Pictures come alive

You can dance right through your life

[Verse 6]

Now I hear the music

Close my eyes

I am rhythm

In a flash, it takes hold of my heart

[Verse 7]

What a feeling

Being's believing

I can have it all

Now I'm dancing for my life

[Verse 8]

Take your passion

And make it happen

Pictures come alive

You can dance right through your life

[Verse 9]

What a feeling

[Verse 10]

What a feeling (I am music now)

Being's believing (I am rhythm now)

Pictures come alive

You can dance right through your life

What a feeling (I can really have it all)

What a feeling (Pictures come alive when I call)

I can have it all (I can really have it all)

Have it all (Pictures come alive when I call)

(Call, call, call, call, what a feeling)

I can have it all (Being's believing)

Being's believing (Take your passion)

(Make it happen) Make it happen

(What a feeling) What a feeling

(Being's believing) Happen

(Take your passion) Happen
