Going the Distance - Bill Conti

I have often dreamed Of a far-off place Where a great warm welcome Will 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 will find my way I can go the distance I'll be there someday If I can be strong I know every mile Will be worth my while I would go 'most anywhere to feel like I belong I am on my way I can go the distance I don't care how far Somehow I'll be strong I know every mile Will be worth my while I would go 'most anywhere to find where I belong

Said, I'm pulling down the shades for the long ride I never knew that I could feel so black and blue And I've been holding onto something now for sometime And all I know is it's a feeling fit for two 'Cause when the sunlight laid its head down on this dark night And I was talking to myself in the rearview Yeah, I've got questions but I know everything is alright And all I have to do is just remember you 'Cause I'm never gonna lose you I've got you deep inside my chest And I can feel you beating like the soul of a drummer boy We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Let the law take us away We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah I've been fake and I've been free I've been you and I've been me But now I stand up tall for what I believe Against all odds, I walked that trail of fear And tread on desperate leaves But no one's leaving just yet We all want that make-believe Tried and true tribulations Of who I've come to be The less I know, the more I learn How much love means to me Every day I'm walking out the front door Leaning on your ghost The best feeling of the day is one that I lean toward most We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Let the law take us away We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah And I've been fake and I've been free I've been you and I've been me But now I stand up tall for what I believe Against all odds, I walked that trail of fear And tread on desperate leaves But no one's leaving just yet We all want that make-believe Tried and true tribulations Of who I've come to be The less I know, the more I learn How much love means to me Every day I'm walking out the front door Leaning on your ghost The best feeling of the day, one that I lean toward most We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Let the law take us away We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Oh, keep going Oh, keep going Oh, keep going Keep going away Oh no (keep going), keep going Oh no (keep going), keep going Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh no Nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Just when you make your way back home I find some time to be alone I go to see the place once more Just like a thousand nights before I climb the stage again this night 'Cause the place seems still alive When the smoke is going down This is the place where I belong I really love to turn you on I've got your sound still in my ear While your traces disappear I climb the stage again this night 'Cause the place seems still alive When the smoke is going down I climb the stage again this night 'Cause the place seems still alive When the smoke is going down When the smoke is going down When the smoke is going down

I picked up on it first thing You weren't like the ones I'd known Mighta been from the same place But coming from somewhere all your own A few hours on a wooden bench That's all it took to do me in Knew then had to make it quick Before I made us fall into sin Said I don't know where we're going But I know I want you to go with me Don't care much about the destination As long as you're there that's where I wanna be The talking took a different tone And started to make you cry What if there's no way for us to know What happens when we die The blur from those tears faded And you saw it for yourself Hard truths all turned to maybes And more than a savior we needed help Said I don't know where we're going But I know I want you to go with me Don't care much about the destination As long as you're there that's where I wanna be A move west to the Devil's town Losing old and making new friends Finally put our crosses down And watched those two boys start to turn to men So much we'd been warned about Ended up being pretty good I keep waiting for the bottom to drop out Like we said it would Still don't know where we're going But I know I want you to go with me Caring less and less about the destination As long as you're there that's where I wanna be I'd like to go back to the old us Take your hand and say it's all gonna be okay We could only do what they told us Without that who knows who we'd be with today I don't know where we're going But I know I want you to go with me Don't care much about the destination As long as you're there that's where I wanna be As long as you're there that's where I'm gonna be
