Life isn&#039;t about waiting for the storm to pass. It&#039;s about learning to dance in the rain.<br /> Life is about giving it your all even when you have nothing.

One thousand dancers
Five hundred ball gowns
Five hundred tuxedos
A throne of jewels
A room of gold
A ceiling of crystals
Beethoven’s 5th
A symphony of perfection
The young queen watches over
A perfect setting
Children play along the walls
Laughter sounds throughout the halls
The dancers glide in sync
The ballroom shines
Glitters and sparkles
All is bright
All is right
