Sometimes we play, sometimes we lose

With pride or with shame

Sometimes a dream turns into dust

But who's there to blame?

Try not to forget, and to understand

And read between the lines

Get back on your feet

You've got one more chance to make it right this time

The reason we stand

Facing the rising sun, the pain goes on and on

We hold deep inside the power to guide us until we touch the sky

The reason we stand with pride

Is the will to live and to reach for the stars

So never look back and we'll keep on fighting until we touch the sky

Sometimes the pain burns deep inside

And all seems in vain

Sometimes the fear darkens the path

And leads us astray

Tears in our eyes and our hopes are fading away

But revenge is sweet, get back on your feet

'Cause the war is upon us today

The reason we stand

Facing the rising sun, the pain goes on and on

We hold deep inside the power to guide us until we touch the sky

The reason we stand with pride

Is the will to live and to reach for the stars

So never look back, you're always just one step away

[Solo]

The reason we stand

Facing the rising sun, the pain goes on and on

We hold deep inside the power to guide us until we touch the sky

The reason we stand with pride

Is the will to live and to reach for the stars

So never look back, and we'll keep on fighting until we touch the sky

(The reason we stand)

The reason we stand

(Facing the rising sun the pain goes on and on)

Pain goes on and on

(We hold deep inside the power to guide us until we touch the sky)

Fighting until we touch the sky

(Ah, the will to live and to reach for the stars)

The power we hold deep inside, until we touch the sky

One step away!

Just one step away!

Just a step

Just a step

Just a step
