I wonder if when
all is done
Anyone heard my voice
But from the start
we have no choice
Our journeys just begin
I'll never know
if I was right
Did I fight hard enough
Or when the battles
grew too rough
Should I have given in
But here I stand
and swear to you
I did the best
that I could do
I know my voice
was just a whisper
But someone may have heard
There were nights
the moon above me stirred
And let me grab a hold
My hands have touched
the gold
My heart's been driven
by extremes
Blind with dreams
tight with fear
But still God knows
that I was here
And I was so alive
And now I lay
the past to rest
For in the end
I did my best
You have to live
the life you're given
And never close your eyes
You hold on
and stare into the sky
And burn against the cold
For any moment
you might find the gold
And there was joy
through it all
And I am standing tall
I know my voice was
just a whisper
Someone must have heard
There were nights
the moon above me stirred
And let my life take hold
I rode across that sky
And once I touched the gold
Here in my own two hands
I once held the gold
