I can see it
Far away in the
Distance it waits
And so I run
Run toward what sits
So far away
I don’t stop
Don’t slow down
Just keep pushing
Faster and faster
I run
One footstep after another
I won’t slow
Can’t slow
I can feel it in my heart
If I don’t get there
Soon
It will disappear
It will be gone
And it won’t come back
So I keep pushing
I don’t give up
Because I can’t
