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 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 it s harms Till I find my hero s welcome waiting in your arms
