Where do you hide, when it's hard to bear? Perhaps out of sight, away from reality Listen boy, don't let them kill your dreams And when they laugh at you ignore them It's a simple lack of imagination Look at me, I'm old enough to tell you That the road you're on will take you exactly Where you want to be, right or wrong Fate is just a word The story is yours now play the starring role Don't change your mind but Please don't be blind Coherence and intelligence sometimes collide Listen boy, learn to forgive yourself And anyone else who hurts you Rancor and sense of guilt Are poison for heart and soul Look at me, I'm old enough to tell you That the road you're on will take you exactly Where you want to be, right or wrong Fate is just a word The story is yours now play the starring role My son I will be always by your side Even in your darkest nights Look at me, I'm old enough to tell you That the road you're on will take you exactly Where you want to be, right or wrong Fate is just a word The story is yours now play the starring role But don't leave behind respect and dignity Don't forget your roots But use your wings to fly in your future sky
