Maybe you don't understand why I gotta dance
There was something had me down but it's over now
I'ma throw my hands up, wave 'em all in the air
'Cause all I wanna do is dance, dance, dance

They told me you ain't good enough, don't look good enough
Don't sing good enough, maybe you should give it up
And if I would've then I never could've received
None of the things that He planned for me

So I waited a little longer, grew a little stronger
And then I realized something was happening
It's so incredible, it's unexplainable
You oughta try Him for yourself and see because

Maybe you don't understand why I gotta dance
There was something had me down but it's over now
I'ma throw my hands up, wave 'em all in the air
'Cause all I wanna do is dance, dance, dance

Sometimes I think about
How it used to be and can't help but
Remembering how it was never easy for me, no, no

But the way God works, it's so amazing
He never forgot me, I can't forget Him
That's enough for me to lift my hands and
I'm sorry if you don't understand

Maybe you don't understand why I gotta dance
There was something had me down but it's over now
I'ma throw my hands up, wave 'em all in the air
'Cause all I wanna do is dance, dance, dance

Maybe you don't understand why I gotta dance
There was something had me down but it's over now
I'ma throw my hands up, wave 'em all in the air
'Cause all I wanna do is dance, dance, dance

All my tears, all my pain
(It's over now, it's over now)
All my doubts they went away
(It's over now, it's over now)
No more fear and I'm glad
(It's over now, it's over now)
Yes, so glad 'cause all I wanna do is dance
(It's over, it's over, over, it's over now)

Maybe you don't understand why I gotta dance
There was something had me down but it's over now
I'ma throw my hands up, wave 'em all in the air
'Cause all I wanna do is dance, dance, dance

Maybe you don't understand why I gotta dance
There was something had me down but it's over now
I'ma throw my hands up, wave 'em all in the air
'Cause all I wanna do is dance, dance, dance

Maybe you don't understand why I gotta dance
Maybe you don't understand why I gotta dance
