When the world seems far beyond me
And I have no place to go,
When my life seems cold and empty
And I feel I'm all alone
Then a song that I remember helps to ease
My troubled mind
And I find the strength within me
To reach out just one more time
For as long as I have music
As long as there's a song for me to sing
I can find a way, I can see a brighter day
The music in my life will set my spirit free ooh
When the road (when the road)
Is dark and lonely (is dark and lonely)
And I feel (and I feel) I want to cry
When the dreams (when the dreams)
I keep inside me (I keep inside me)
Seem to fade (seem to fade
And [almost] die
Then I call upon my music
And it helps to dry my tears
And I know that I can make it
I'll go on despite my fear
For as long as I have music
As long as there's a song for me to sing
I can find my way I can see a brighter day
The music in my life will set my spirit free
Set it free
