Lyrics
Game Size
As you look back upon the past you left behind And all the things you might do over We can't take back the past, but we can move ahead If we can find the strength to hold onto If you could go back, back in time If you could go back, would you really change your mind Or is this just a chance to discover Find your faith in the wings of another, find your way ※ Isn't it time for a change in the way that you feel inside? The courage to Take a Step Forward Spreading your wings after falling, no need for concern Isn't it just another lesson learned? Isn't it time for a change in the way that you feel inside? The courage to Take a Step Forward Spreading your wings after falling, no need for concern ※ Repeat
Long Version
As you look back upon the past you left behind And all the things you might do over We can't take back the past, but we can move ahead If we can find the strength to hold onto If you could go back, back in time If you could go back, would you really change your mind Or is this just a chance to discover Find your faith in the wings of another, find your way ※ Isn't it time for a change in the way that you feel inside? The courage to Take a Step Forward Spreading your wings after falling, no need for concern Isn't it just another lesson learned? Sometimes it's hard to reach for help when nothing's clear And hope is lost inside your anger Let go of hate and fear and reach inside For something more that occurs deep within you If you could go back, back in time If you could go back, would you really change your mind Or is this just a chance to discover Find your faith in the wings of another, find your way ※ Repeat Isn't it time for a change in the way that you feel inside? The courage to Take a Step Forward Spreading your wings after falling, no need for concern ※ Repeat |
