Dance With Me

Get the tissues ready. This song was written in one afternoon over lunch at a Thai restaurant after seeing a Facebook post from a friend who has been undergoing chemo treatment for cancer.

She had taken time out for a walk - hairless from the chemo, no makeup, and without any public facade on what she had actually been going through in this season of her journey. And it left her feeling completely vulnerable, exposed and emotionally raw for the looks she was getting from passers by as she ventured out.

This song comes out of the emotion of someone going through a life changing journey. Maybe it struck a raw nerve to me because of my own medical dramas. But it's a soulful, heart-wrenching outpouring of the need to have someone else there just to be with you in those moments. To hold their hand. Share the tears. The pain. The heartache of the journey.

It's called Dance With Me. I hope and prayer is that it helps you - and those close to you - if you're on a similar journey. Personally, I was bawling my eyes out when I wrote it, and honestly it totally broke me when I listened back for the first time.

I know it's been a cathartic outlet for a number of people already who are going through various journeys and battles. My prayer is that it helps many others going through similar journeys.

Lyrics

Take my hand
Hold me close
Dance with me
Dance with me
It’s crowded here
I’m all alone
Dance with me
Dance with me

It’s a long and lonely journey
Tears begin to fall
The pain is overwhelming
But I’m giving it my all

Please take my hand
Hold me close
Dance with me
Dance with me
It’s crowded here
I’m all alone
Dance with me
Dance with me

This path is long and winding
I somehow carry on
These mountains and the valleys
I can’t do it all alone

So take my hand
Hold me close
Dance with me
Dance with me
It’s crowded here
I’m all alone
Dance with me
Dance with me

I need you here beside me
I need your hand in mine
Hold me through the darkest times
When I can’t face it all alone

So take my hand
Hold me close
Dance with me
Dance with me
It’s crowded here
I’m all alone
Dance with me
Dance with me

Dance with me
Dance with me
