5. Our Destiny (6:00)
So many days we've spent together
Trying to get ahead with our dreams
Now we have come to the goal forgotten
Hurting within left us torn
The road is open
We find out way through ties where broken
So the means to the end
Was the peace that was meant
To be ours since it all began
We fight to win
I won't give up, we'll fight to win
To move along from where we'd been
I'll sing this song for you again
I'm looking up around the bend
We're so much stronger than before
Our fraying edges on the mend
Life as we know would be so different
Had our paths continued the same
Seizing the day with all that's offered
The good and the bad,
The clear and the haze
To move along from where we'd been
I'll sing this song for you again
I'm looking up around the bend
We're so much stronger than before
Our fraying edges on the mend
Don't let go
So hard to face what we've done wrong
We shared a life that can't be
We cannot hide from destiny
So hard to face what had gone wrong
We've got to make this work
And give it our all
Give our all and won't let go
Waiting so long for an answer
We've been waiting oh, so very long and
Now we're ready to accept our fate
Our melodies will be remembered
forever and ever
Our memories will fade away
when the leaves have reached the soil
I won't give up this fight
The sacrifices made
We gave our all
And won't let it go to die in vain
I'll sing this song again
We're stronger than before
We have the chance of lifetime
We'll never close this door
Trying to get ahead with our dreams
Now we have come to the goal forgotten
Hurting within left us torn
The road is open
We find out way through ties where broken
So the means to the end
Was the peace that was meant
To be ours since it all began
We fight to win
I won't give up, we'll fight to win
To move along from where we'd been
I'll sing this song for you again
I'm looking up around the bend
We're so much stronger than before
Our fraying edges on the mend
Life as we know would be so different
Had our paths continued the same
Seizing the day with all that's offered
The good and the bad,
The clear and the haze
To move along from where we'd been
I'll sing this song for you again
I'm looking up around the bend
We're so much stronger than before
Our fraying edges on the mend
Don't let go
So hard to face what we've done wrong
We shared a life that can't be
We cannot hide from destiny
So hard to face what had gone wrong
We've got to make this work
And give it our all
Give our all and won't let go
Waiting so long for an answer
We've been waiting oh, so very long and
Now we're ready to accept our fate
Our melodies will be remembered
forever and ever
Our memories will fade away
when the leaves have reached the soil
I won't give up this fight
The sacrifices made
We gave our all
And won't let it go to die in vain
I'll sing this song again
We're stronger than before
We have the chance of lifetime
We'll never close this door
