Dancing in the Minefields Lyrics

Dancing In The Minefields
Andrew Peterson
Intro : C Am F (x2)
Verse 1 :
Well I was 19, you were 21, the year we got engaged
Everyone said we were much too young, but we did it anyway
We got the rings for 40 each from a pawnshop down the road
We said our vows and took the leap now 15 years ago
Chorus 1 :
We went dancing in the minefields
We went sailing in the storms
And it was harder than we dreamed
But I believe that's what the promise is for
s4 us4
(That's what the promise is for)
Interlude 1 : C Am F
Verse 2 :
Well ?I do? are the two most famous last words
The beginning of the end
But to lose your life for another I've heard is a good place to begin
?Cause the only way to find your life is to lay your own life down
And I believe it's an easy price for the life that we have found
Chorus 1 :
We went dancing in the minefields
We went sailing in the storms
And it was harder than we dreamed
But I believe that's what the promise is for
s4 us4
(That's what the promise is for)
Bridge :
So when I lose my way, find me
When I lose loves chains, bind me
At the end of all my faith to the end of all my days
When I forget my name, remind me
Interlude 2 : C Am F
Verse 3 :
?Cause we bear the light of the Son of man
So there's nothing left to fear
So I'll walk with you in the shadow lands till the shadows disappear
?Cause He promised not to leave us and His promises are true
So in the face of this chaos, baby I can dance with you
Chorus 2 :
So let's go dancing in the minefields, let's go sailing in the storms
Oh, let's go dancing in the minefields, and kicking down the doors
Oh, let's go dancing in the minefields, and sailing in the storms
Oh, this is harder than we dreamed
But I believe that's what the promise is for
That's what the promise is for
