OUT INTO THE WORLD [Verse 1] You packed your dreams in an old suitcase With a restless heart and a brand-new face I watched you standing there by the door Knowing you wouldn’t be mine anymore I wanted to tell you the world ain’t kind That sometimes the hardest roads change your mind But you’re old enough now to choose your way And all I can do is hope you’re okay [Chorus] So go, wherever the road may lead Chase every dream that you think you need The world can be cold, the nights can be long But somewhere inside you, you’ll find where you belong And if you get lost somewhere along the way Remember there’s someone who still knows your name [Verse 2] There’ll be people who promise you everything And some who will break every promise they bring You’ll learn that love isn’t always enough And sometimes being strong means knowing when to run I wish I could shield you from every regret From every goodbye you haven’t met yet But life isn’t something I can live for you You’ve got your own sky and your own road to choose [Chorus] So go, wherever the road may lead Chase every dream that you think you need The world can be cold, the nights can be long But somewhere inside you, you’ll find where you belong [Bridge] And when the years have carried you far And you look back wondering where you are You’ll find that the love that was given for free Was waiting behind you, quietly [Final Chorus] So go, let the whole world open wide Take all your courage and step outside There’ll be tears, there’ll be laughter, there’ll be days you fall But that’s how you learn what you’re living for after all And if someday you come walking through that door You won’t have to wonder what you’re coming home for I’ll be right here, just like yesterday Hoping you’re happy wherever life takes you away
