Can i have this dance...

So maybe I'm too old to be listening to High School Musical songs, nevermind posting about them, but what the heck. This is a beautiful song. :)

[Gabriella]
Take my hand, take a breath
Pull me close and take one step
Keep your eyes locked on mine,
And let the music be your guide.

[Troy, Gabriella]
Won't you promise me (now won't you promise me, that you'll never forget)
We'll keep dancing (to keep dancing) wherever we go next

(chorus)
It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance

[Troy]
Take my hand, I'll take the lead
And every turn will be safe with me
Don't be afraid, afraid to fall
You know I'll catch you threw it all

[Troy, Gabriella]
And you can't keep us apart (even a thousand miles, can't keep us apart)
'Cause my heart is (cause my heart is) wherever you are

(chorus)
It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance

[Gabriella And Troy]
Oh no mountains too high enough, oceans too wide
'Cause together or not, our dance won't stop
Let it rain, let it pour
What we have is worth fighting for
You know I believe, that we were meant to be

(chorus)
It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you (like you)
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do (way we do)
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)
Can I have this dance

Can I have this dance
Can I have this dance

There has been lots of cars in my driveway and boys on my couch. I've toyed with bad boys, mamma's boys & country boys. Been broken by a few and broken a few myself. I've never said "I love you" and never had the need. I've been the rebound, the challenge, the fall back and the girlfriend. I've been the mistake & the correction. One day someone will love me for what I've been & what I am, where I've been & where I am; one day, someone will love me for me**

You want the truth?

Well, here it is. Eventually, you forget it all. First you forget everything you learned –  the dates of wars and the Pythagoras Theorem. You especially forget everything you didn't really learn, but just memorised the night before. You forget the names of all, but one or two of your favourite teachers, and eventually you forget those, too.  You forget your grade 12 class timetable and where you used to sit and your best friend's home phone number and the lyrics to that song you must have played a million times. And eventually, but slowly, you forget your humiliations. Even the ones that seemed indelible just fade away.

You forget who was cool and who was not, who was pretty, smart, athletic, and not. Who went to a good school. Who threw the best parties. Who had the most friends. You forget all of them. Even the ones you said you loved. And the ones you actually did. They're the last to go. And then once you've forgotten enough, you love someone else.
