Got to take a little time,

I better read between the lines,

In case I need it when I'm older.

Ohhhhhh! Ohhhhhh, ohhhhhhh!

Now this mountain I must climb
Bb Dm
Feels like the world upon my shoulders.

Through the clouds I see love shine,
Bb Dm
It keeps me warm as life grows colder.

In my life there's been heartache and pain.

Can't stop now, I've travelled so far

To change this lonely life.
