I've Seen Tomorrow

Open PDF Plain text

Verse 1

You and I, we've been through it all
We've come so far together
Reaching for our dream
And yes, I know the road stretches on
And we must meet the challenge
We must climb the mountain
We must find the answers
For living our own way

Chorus

Yes, I've seen tomorrow
You and I together
We are one for the other
We will never stray
Yes, we are stronger
When we stand united
We are one for the other
We will never stray

The truth that lives within us
The faith that leads us onward
The goal that lies before us
Is like a bright new day

Chorus

Yes, I've seen tomorrow
You and I together
We are one for the other
We will never stray
Yes, we are stronger
When we stand united
The dream we're holding
Is growing day by day

Yes, there is a reason
That we walk together
We are one for the other
We will never stray
Yes, we are stronger
When we stand united
Oh yes, the dream we're holding
Is growing day by day

Yes, we are one
Yes, we are one
Yes, we are one
Growing day by day
