I have often dreamed of a far off place Where a hero's welcome would be waiting for me Where the crowd will cheer when they see my face And a voice keeps saying this is where I'm meant to be I'll be there someday, I can go the distance I will find my way if I can be strong I know every mile will be worth my while When I go the distance I'll be right where I belong I'll lay down an unknown wound to embrace my fate Though that road may wander it will lead me to you And a thousand years would be worth the wait It might take a lifetime but somehow I'll see it through And I won't look back I can go the distance and I'll stay on track No I won't accept defeat It's an uphill slope but I won't lose hope Till I go the distance and my journey is complete But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part For a hero's strength is measured by his heart Like a shooting star I will go the distance I will search the world I will face its hearts I don't care how far I can go the distance Till I find my hero's welcome waiting in your arms I will search the world I will face its harms Till I find my hero's welcome waiting in your arms
