that old wind that's whiping out there
i'ts whistling your tune
that wind blew pyramids to egypt
and footprints to the moon
that old star that you've been wishin on
is shinning mighty bright
it's the fire inside your heart
that's gonna lead you to the light
how you ever gonna know
what it's like to live there
how you ever gonna know
victory
how you ever gonna know
what it's like when dreams become reality
how you ever gonna know
how it feels to hold her
how you ever gonna know
what it's like to dance
how you ever gonna know
if you never take the chance
you know failure isn't failure
if a lesson from it's learned
i guess love would not be love
without a risk of being burned
anything in life worth having
Lord it has its sacrifice
but the gift that you're receiving
is worth more than the price
how you ever gonna know
what it's like to live there
how you ever gonna know
what you never knew
how you ever gonna know
if you're down here doin
what the good Lord put you here to do
how you ever gonna know
if you could have done it
how you ever gonna know
how it feels to fly
how you ever gonna know
if you never dare to try
listen not to the critics
who put their own dreams on the shelf
if you wanna get the truth to admit it
you gotta find out for yourself
how you ever gonna know
what its like to be there
how you ever gonna know
if you're the best
how you ever gonna know
what you believe in
if you don't put it to the test
how you ever gonna know
how it feels to hold him
how you ever gonna know
what livin is
how you ever gonna know
if you never chase the dream
how you ever gonna know
your potential
how you ever gonna know
victory
how you ever gonna know
what it's like when dreams become reality
how you ever gonna know
how it feels to hold him
how you ever gonna know
what it's like to dance
how you ever gonna know
if you never take the chance
