This is a long road we travel
   Is it as bad as it seems
   Does it captivate your every thought
   Oh, reaching for your dream
   Well nobody comes to your door
  
   Nobody gives it away
   When you think you've found it
   It slips through your fingers
   Like sand it drifts away
  
   So the moral goes
   This is the way the story reads
   Keep trying we believe
  
   If this is the road we take to our dream
   Do we walk in vain
   If this is the road we take to our dream
   And fall on the way
   Get up and do it again

   It slips through your fingers
   Like sand it drifts away

   This is a long road we're travelling
   Is it as bad as it seems
   Such a long road we're travelling
   Is it as bad as it seems
   We believe
  
   If this is the road we take to our dream
   Do we walk in vain
   If this is the road we take to our dream
   And fall on the way (fall on the way)
   Get up and do it again
