Listen to what the girl is saying.
Dont tell her just to sit on down.
There is a spirit that cannot be contained,
And Tedra is the one that cant be bound.
Listen to what the girl is dancing all about,
Happy music isnt everyday.
Theres a time to sit, and theres a time to break away.
Sweet bird of youth will up and fly away -
This time together, like this moment slips away.

Chorus:

So sweet smile surrender,
She just cant help it if the music sends her.
Sweet smile surrender.
Dont be angry, dont be mad, just join us and dance.
If you stop and listen, you can figure it out,
Its a message that shes trying to say.
Its just a song that she wants for me to play.
Sweet bird of youth will up and fly away -
This time together, like this moment slips away.

Chorus.

Dont be angry, dont be mad.
Just join us .
Join us.
Join us and dance.

Listen to what the girl is saying.
Dont tell her just to sit on down.
There is a spirit that cannot be contained,
And Tedra is the one that cant be bound.
Listen to what the girl is dancing all about,
Happy music isnt everyday.
Theres a time to sit, and theres a time to break away.
Sweet bird of youth will up and fly away -
This time together, like this moment slips away.

Chorus:

So sweet smile surrender,
She just cant help it if the music sends her.
Sweet smile surrender.
Dont be angry, dont be mad, just join us and dance.
If you stop and listen, you can figure it out
