The road we walk is long and lonely And you only get to live one life So if you've a dream that you believe in To make it real you may have to find Slaming doors and tears of heartache Cruel words that like a knife cut through your heart But they all mean nothing if deep inside your dream is right Chorus And the light of hope shine wiser brightly The finest place that you ever seen And they light the way to the darkest hour As you follow your dream The path you take may lead to places The live and love are strange and new You mustn't change for the sake of changing As what you are is inside of you The wave roll on in an endless motion And they wash my footsteps from the sand But they'll never wash away all my memories Of the love we shared and the songs we sang
