Ok, i thought of 5 songs that might work for you, all from different types of music, cause i wasn't sure what type of music you were looking for.
Reba McIntyre - What do you say
Stuck at a red light outside an adult bookstore
His son said, "daddy, what are all those x's for"
As the light turned green he changed the subject fast
He started talkin' 'bout football as they drove right past
What do you say in a moment like this
When you can't find the words oh to tell it like it is
Just bite your tongue and let your heart lead the way
Let's get out of here oh what do you say
Seventeen years old she was out with her friends
They started drinken' at some party 'til she was three sheets to the
Wind
Her momma always told her she can call no matter what
She was cryin' on the front steps when her mom showed up
Sometimes you got to listen to the silence
And give yourself a little time to think
Her every breath is weaker than the last
And lately when she sleeps she talks about the past
Her husband knows she's tired of holding on
She looks at him and says i want to go home
What do you say in a moment like this
When you can't find the words to tell it like it is
Just close your eyes and let your heart lead the way
Oh what do you say
On My Own from Les Miserables
And now I?m all alone again
Nowhere to turn, no one to go to
Without a home, without a friend,
Without a face to say hello to.
And now the night is near
Now I can make believe he?s here.
Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I?m happy
With the company I?m keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head.
On my own
Pretending he?s beside me
All alone, I walk with him till morning
Without him
I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me
In the rain the pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me for ever and forever
And I know it?s only in my mind
That I?m talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say, there?s a way for us
I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone, the river?s just a river
Without him the world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere
The streets are full of strangers
I love him
But every day I?m learning
All my life I?ve only been pretending
Without me his world will go on turning
A world that?s full of happiness
That I have never known!
I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my own.
Hands by Jewel
If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all ok
And not to worry because worry is wasteful
and useless in times like these
I will not be made useless
I won't be idled with despair
I will gather myself around my faith
for light does the darkness most fear
My hands are small, I know,
but they're not yours they are my own
but they're not yours they are my own
and I am never broken
Poverty stole your golden shoes
but it didn't steal your laughter
And heartache came to visit me
but i knew it wasn't ever after
We will fight, not out of spite
for someone must stand up for what's right
cause where there's a man who has no voice
there ours shall go singing
In the end only kindness matters
In the end only kindness matters
I will get down on my knees and I will pray
I will get down on my knees and I will pray
I will get down on my knees and I will pray
My hands are small, I know,
but they're not yours they are my own
but they're not yours they are my own
and I am never broken
My hands are small, i know,
but they're not yours they are my own
but they're not yours they are my own
and I am never broken
We are never broken
We are God's eyes
God's hands
God's mind
We are God's eyes
God's hands
God's heart
We are God's eyes
God's hands
God's eyes
God's hands
We are God's hands
God's hands
We are God's hands
The Rose by Bette Midler (these aren't all the lyrics i don't htink, but its all i could find)
Some say love, it is a river, that drowns the tender reed
Some say love, it is a razor, that leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need
I say love, it is a flower, and you, its only seed
Its the heart afraid of breaking, that never learns to dance
Its the dream afraid of waking, that never takes the chance
Its the one who won't be taken, the one who can't seem to give
And the soul afraid of dying, that never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong
Just remember that in the winter, far beneath the bitter snow
Lies the seed, that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the rose.
Landslide by Fleetwood Mac (i like this one better than the dixie chicks)
I took my love, i took it down
Climbed a mountain and i turned around
I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
'till the landslide brought me down
Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can i sail thru the changing ocean tides
Can i handle the seasons of my life
Well, i've been afraid of changing
'cause i've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older too
Oh, take my love, take it down
Climb a mountain and turn around
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well maybe the landslide will bring it down
sorry that was so long. hope you find a good song to dance to. =)

"I'm not feeling so bold
Can't you see I don't want to grow old
And my photograph's an epitaph of parody
I don't want to be me
I'm not feeling so sure
It would help if you offered a cure
If I wait, it's too late for the remedy
I don't want to be me
You won't save me
Cuz I'm not the fortunate one
So don't blame me
If I decide to go hide or instead to just run"
