Intro:
half the world is sleeping
half the world's awake
half can hear their heart beat
half just hear them break
i am but a trav'ller
been most everywhere
ask me what you want to know.
Chorus
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.
Interlude:
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.
Repeat chorus
Bridge
forward, always forward
onward, always up
catching every drop of hope
in my empty cup.
Repeat chorus except last word
...been
what a journey it has been.
