'I have often dreamed, of a far-off place, where a hero's 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'll be there someday, I can go the distance, I will find my way, If I can be strong.
I know every mile, will be worth my while.
When I go the distance, I'll be right where I...belong.'
'Down an unknown road, to embrace my fate.
Though the road may wander, it will lead me to you.
And a thousand years would be worth the wait.
It might take a lifetime, but somehow I'll see it through.'
'And I won't look back, I can go the distance.
And I'll stay on track. No, I won't accept defeat.
It's an uphill slope, but I won't lose hope.
Till I go the distance and my journey is...complete.
Oh, Yeah!
But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part, for a hero's strength is measured by his heart...
Like a shooting star, I will go the distance.
I will search the world, I will face its harms.
I don't care how far, I can go the distance.
Till I find my hero's welcome, waiting in...
Your arms.
'I will search the world, I will face its harms...
Till I find my hero's welcome, waiting in...
'Your arms.
[song fades]
