First, when there's nothing but a slow glowing dream
That your fear seems to hide deep inside your mind
All alone, I have cried silent tears full of pride
In a world made of steel, made of stone

Well I hear the music, close my eyes, feel the rhythm
Wrap around, take a hold of my heart

What a feeling, bein's believin'
I can have it all, now I'm dancin' for my life
Take your passion and make it happen
Pictures come alive, you can dance right through your life

Now I hear the music, close my eyes, I am rhythm
In a flash it takes hold of my heart

What a feeling, bein's believin'
I can have it all, now I'm dancin' for my life
Take your passion and make it happen
Pictures come alive, now I'm dancing through my life
What a feeling

What a feeling (I am music now), bein's believin' (I am rhythm now)
Pictures come alive, you can dance right through your life
What a feeling (I can really have it all)
What a feeling (pictures come alive when I call)
I can have it all (I can really have it all)
Have it all (pictures come alive when I call)
(Call, call, call, call, what a feeling) I can have it all
(Bein's believin') Bein's believin'
(Take your passion, make it happen) Make it happen
(What a feeling) what a feeling
