It's been a long road
Getting from there to here
It's been a long time
But my time is finally near
And I can feel the change in the wind right now
Nothing's in my way
And they're not gonna hold me down no more
No they're not gonna hold me down
'Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe, I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star, I've got faith
I've got faith, faith of the heart
It's been a long night
Trying to find my way
Been through the darkness
Now I finally have my day
And I will see my dream come alive at last
I will touch the sky
And they're not gonna hold me down no more
No they're not gonna change my mind
'Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe, I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star, I've got faith
Faith of the heart
I've known a wind so cold and seen the darkest days
But now the winds I feel are only winds of change
I've been through the fire and I've been through the rain but I'll be fine
'Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe, I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star, I've got faith
Faith of the
Faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe
That no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
'Cause I've got faith
'Cause I've got faith
Faith of the heart
It's been a long road
