Title:
“One Last Freedom Dance”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[G] Once we were young, [D] free as the wind,
[C] Dancing on the edge, [G] where do we begin?
[G] Time has a way, [D] of changing our stance,
[C] Let’s take a moment, [G] for one last freedom dance.

(Chorus)
[D] One last freedom dance, [C] under the stars so bright,
[G] With the moon as our spotlight, [D] on this endless night.
[D] Let the music play, [C] let’s take a chance,
[G] Come hold my hand, [D] for one last freedom dance.

(Verse 2)
[G] Dreams in our eyes, [D] hope in our heart,
[C] Even when we stumble, [G] we’ll never fall apart.
[G] Let the world spin, [D] in its crazy trance,
[C] We’ll stand still, [G] for one last freedom dance.

(Chorus)
[D] One last freedom dance, [C] under the sky so wide,
[G] With the stars as our guide, [D] side by side.
[D] In the face of change, [C] in every circumstance,
[G] We’ll find our way, [D] with one last freedom dance.
