the journey

inspired by lea salonga's "the journey" song, i made this blog as an attempt to document my own journey in this so-called life. how i love the song - the message, the melody, the singer! so i decided to post the lyrics here for everyone's appreciation.

the journey

half the world is sleeping, half the world's awake
half can hear their hearts beat, half just hear them break
i am but a traveler, in most every way
ask me what you want...to know

what a journey it has been and the end is not in sight
but the stars are out tonight and they're bound to guide my way
when they're shining on my life i can see a better day
i won't let the darkness in, what a journey it has been

i have been to sorrow, i have been to bliss
where i'll be tomorrow, i can only guess
through the darkest desert, through the deepest snow
forward, always forward, i go...

what a journey it has been and the end is not in sight
but the stars are out tonight and they're bound to guide my way
when they're shining on my life i can see a better day
i won't let the darkness in, what a journey it has been...

forward, always forward... onward, always up...
catching every drop of hope in my empty cup

what a journey it has been and the end is not in sight
but the stars are out tonight and they're bound to guide my way
when they're shining on my life i can see a better day
i won't let the darkness in, what a journey it has been...

what a journey it has been...(",)
