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"
