LYRICS

There’s a time
When your soul wakes up
And looks to a single truth
It’s not God or love
Or any other word
It’s beyond words but clear as day

There are some
That stop listening to their hearts
The message comes too late
And still others
Watch the clock tick by
And blame their lives on fate

But I’ll be damned
If I’m gonna sit around
And give it up without a fight

What is missing from this life I’m living in?
I’ve followed a path
Where my heart has never been
What happened to my dreams?
I’d like to see them again
What’s this life I’m living in?

As I drift
To a dreamless sleep
I hear the voice within
It cries “Wake up”
“Take that leap of faith”
“…and dare to dream again”

But I’ll be damned
If I’m gonna sit around
And give my dreams without a fight

What is missing from this live I’m living in?
I’ve followed a path where my heart has never been
What happened to my dreams
I’d like to see them again
What’s this life I’m living in?
