I have often dreamed of a far-off place Where a hero's welcome would be waiting for me Where the crowds 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 Down an unknown road 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 slog, but I won't lose hope Until 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 and I will face its harms I don't care how far, I can go the distance Till I find my hero's welcome waiting in, in your arms I will search the world and I will face its harms Till I find my hero's welcome waiting in, in your arms
