Time to Dance
The Shoes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey brother, get up, check the wings
Do what I do, it's what I feel
Up to the sun, it won't be long
And now it's time for you to run
Amen, it's time to dance

Hey sister, come on, kick the world
The world is yours, up to you girl
It was so fun, you feel so strong
And now it's time for you to burn
Amen, it's time to dance

T-I-M-E-T-O-D-A-N-C-E in the city
T-I-M-E-T-O-D-A-N-C-E in the city

Hey brother, get up, check the wings
Do what I do, it's what I feel
Up to the sun, it won't be long
And now it's time for you to run
Hey sister, come and kick the world
The world is yours, up to you girl
It was so fun, you feel so strong
And now it's time for you to burn

Hey brother, get up, check the wings (check the wings)
Do what I do, it's what I feel (it's what I feel)
Keep, keep on walking on the way (ways of the Lord)
Oh boy, it's time for you to run (and then it's time to dance)

T-I-M-E-T-O-D-A-N-C-E in the city
T-I-M-E-T-O-D-A-N-C-E in the city
T-I-M-E-T-O-D-A-N-C-E in the city
T-I-M-E-T-O-D-A-N-C-E in the city

Hey brother, get up, check the wings
Do what I do, it's what I feel
Up to the sun, it won't be long
And now it's time for you to run
Hey sister, come on, kick the world
The world is yours, up to you girl
It was so fun, you feel so strong
And now it's time for you to burn
Amen, it's time to dance
