Lyrics
I found a book that my mama kept Filled with secrets she hid And in a dusty old attic, one mornin' I read About a woman I never met Who had dreams just like mine With every page that I turned, her words came alive
Wish I could roll out of town like a run-away train I'll do as I dare, let them call me insane I'll never sit on the sidelines of life, i'll dance every dance If I just had the chance
A tear fell on that faded page 'Cause this was somebody else Not the mama I knew who never thought of herself But the times, they were different then And lines just didn't get crossed And these words that she wrote, they somehow got lost
Wish I could roll out of town like a run-away train I'll do as I dare, let them call me insane I'll never sit on the sidelines of life, i'll dance every dance If I just had the chance
The chance that she never had Is now the gift that is mine And out here on this road, i'm makin' up for lost time Yeah, I am my mother's child And tonight in this car I got her words in my suitcase, and her dreams in my heart
As I roll out of town like a run-away train I'll do as I dare, let them call me insane I'll never sit on the sidelines of life, i'll dance every dance While I still have the chance I'll never sit on the sidelines of life, i'll dance every dance While I still have the chance
