I've been staring at the edge of the water
Long as I can remember
Never really knowing why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
But I come back to the water
No matter how hard I try
Every turn I take, every trail I track
See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
Every path I make, every road leads back
To the place I know, where I cannot go
Where I long to be
See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know, if I go there's just no telling how far I'll go
Oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
I have often dreamed of a far off place
Where a hero's welcome would be waiting for me
Where the crowds would 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 every mile would be worth my while
When I go the distance, I'll be right where I belong
Down an unknown road
(Every turn I take, every trail I track)
To embrace my fate
(Every path I make, every road leads back)
Though that road may wander, it will lead me to you
And a thousand years
(I can lead with pride, I can make us strong)
Would be worth the wait
(I'll be satisfied if I play along)
It might take a lifetime
(But the voice inside sings a different song where I long to be)
But somehow I'll see it through
And I won't look back, I can go the distance
See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
And I'll stay on track, no I won't accept defeat
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
And one day I'll know
What's beyond that line, will I cross that line?
See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know, how far I'll go
Like a shooting star, I will go the distance
I will search the world, I will face it's harms
I don't care how far, I can go the distance
'Til I find my hero's welcome
Waiting in your arms
