All right Oh, yeah Living every moment holding on to a dream Staring at an empty page, will it come to me? And I wonder, will the light ever shine on me? If it's a mountain I must climb, then that's the way it must be Day after day, like a lifetime away, I keep holding on And night after night, out of reach, out of sight from it all Day after day, I won't walk away from this dream of mine Whoa, yeah, it's in the hands of time Live every moment with a dream burning bright And never stop reachin' when the dream shines its light Will I take it for granted when the trying's all said and done? Does the pain of rememberin' fade when dreams are won? Day after day, fight the storm's shade of gray and keep holdin' on Night after night, let hope be your light on your way Day after day, I won't walk away from this dream of mine Whoa, yeah, it's in the hands of time Day after day like a lifetime away, keep holding on Night after night, let hope be your light on your way Day after day, I won't walk away from this dream of mine Whoa, yeah, it's in the hands of time
