那久违的感动(1) Lee Ann Womack: I hope you dance

小黑皮要唱励志歌曲。说到励志歌，这是第一首我想到的歌。

Lee Ann Womack是一个很好的country music歌手。我是从电台上第一次听到这首歌，然后去专门买了一盘她的cd，只为了这首歌。

从小到大，常常问自己问别人生活的意义，却苦苦找不到答案。我念书的时候跟男朋友相隔两岸，研究上也很多时候因为困难而迷茫。我记得那个时候经常半夜2，3点不能入睡，打电话给我男友，东部时间的5，6点钟吵他起来，问那个问了n百遍的问题，到底活着为了什么啊？

Lee Ann讲，我希望你永远不要失去那份对世界的渴望，不要把任何的得到当成必然。当你站在海边，希望你仍然会觉得渺小。当你面临远山，希望你不要害怕它的距离。生活就是一条永远流动的河流，在这个历程中经历很多很多的事情，做很多很多的选择。If you can figure out a way to keep the energy and gumption and fire alive, you'll always stay young. And where there's youth, there's hope... where there's hope, there's wonder... where there's wonder, there's faith... where there's faith, there's chance... where there's chance, there's love...where 's there's love, there's music... and dancing. So in my heart of hearts, I hope you dance.

附上歌词：

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 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 (Time is a real and constant motion always)

I hope you dance (Rolling us along)

I hope you dance (Tell me who)

I hope you dance (Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)

(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small When you stand by the ocean

Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens

Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

Dance I hope you dance I hope you dance

(Time is a real and constant motion always)

I hope you dance (Rolling us along)

I hope you dance (Tell me who)

(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)

I hope you dance (Where those years have gone)

(Tell me who) I hope you dance (Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)

(Where those years have gone)

我附上一个youtube的视频。说实话，这个mv拍的远没有我的期望高。http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTQfERb9HVk

再附上一个Ronan Keating唱的版本。
