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 some day
I can go the distance.
I will find my way if I can be strong
I know ev'ry 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 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 harms.
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.
