Timid words that warm us up like fire
When promises take us far from home
Watching clouds until
The daylight starts to dim
And reality kicks in
A miracle in the making
This flame will burn never fading
And the father in me
Is hoping you'll be
Looking much farther than you can see
You may fall in and out of phase
In and out, in and out of phase
But don't dwell on a sunset
Don't change the way you gaze
Change the way, don't change the way you gaze
With eyes as wide
As the evening sky
You can't touch them but you might
These stars you see are there for the taking
And in time you'll breathe, breathe it all in
And the father in me
Is hoping you'll be
Looking much farther than you can see
Keep going
Keep going
Keep going
Keep going far and wide
Leave no room for fear
Never knowing
Never knowing
Never knowing
Never knowing what you'll find
When you get there
Keep going
Keep going
Keep going
Keep going far and wide
Leave no room for fear
Never knowing
Never knowing
Never knowing
Never knowing what you'll find
You'll turn to me to find shelter
But in time your heart will grow stronger
And the father in me
Is hoping you'll be
Looking much farther than you can see
