When I’m up through the nightI can’t turn down the noise, tear all the worriesOut of my mind‘Bout who I’m supposed to be, I start to believeI can’t get it rightRemember the days I let slip awayThey were simpler timesMomma told me, “Before you leaveIf there’s only one thing you remember from me”Child, when you’re out on your ownA million miles from homeFeeling the weight of the worldOn your shouldеrsChild, don’t forget who you areDon’t lose your hеad or your heartI’ll bet my life on your starsYou’ll be dancingDancing on the moon, I bet my lifeYou’ll be dancing on the moon, I bet my lifeYou’ll be dancing on the moon, I bet my lifeYou’ll be dancing on the moonDancing on the moonDancing on the moonMaybe my compass was wrongAnd I’m still on my way, closer each day to where I belongI’m still rolling the dice, praying sometimesIt don’t last that long
I’m losing my faith, I’m walking awayFrom what you knew all alongMomma told me, “Before you leaveIf there’s only one thing you remember from me”Child, when you’re out on your ownA million miles from homeFeeling the weight of the worldOn your shouldersChild, don’t forget who you areDon’t lose your head or your heartI’ll bet my life on your starsYou’ll be dancingDancing on the moon, I bet my lifeYou’ll be dancing on the moon, I bet my lifeYou’ll be dancing on the moon, I bet my lifeYou’ll be dancing on the moon (I bet my life)Dancing on the moonDancing on the moonChild, when you’re out on your ownA million miles from homeFeeling the weight of the worldOn your shouldersChild, don’t forget who you areDon’t lose your head or your heartI’ll bet my life on your starsYou’ll be dancingDancing on the moon
