Sheand's got her reasons, sheand's got her pride
though sheand's beaten black and blue
one fine day sheand'll be walking outside
sheand'll turn to see what is true
wonand't draw no curtains, be hiding no way
on that victory day
Sheand's stuck it out, sheand's hung in tough
she wonand't be running away
he says it will change, but each time it does
it starts up all over again
he wants the thunder, the crashing of waves
the guts, the glory of victory parades
she says it just never happens that way
on that victory day
Victory day, victory day
thereand's no rockets flaring, thereand's no loud display
if you walk with me weand'll get there someway
on that victory day
In the sun, walk by the water, in the sun
she says life isnand't big, not itand's kind of small
made of small moments, theyand're all strung together
if you donand't look out, you might miss them all
then itand's just passed you on by like the weather
he wants that thunder and crashing of waves
the guts, the glory of victory parades
she says iand'll give you much more than youand'll take
on that victory day
Victory day, victory day
thereand's no rockets flaring, thereand's no loud display
if you walk with me weand'll get there someway
on that victory day
And heand's gotten so close and he wonand't let it fade
and the reasons still haunt you for the mistakes you made
she says let it go, and'cause itand's time for a change
but heand's still a little boy trapped between pages
time to walk away from him
she said andquot;iand'll take you some place where i know it will changeandquot;
Victory day, victory day
thereand's no rockets flaring, thereand's no loud display
if you walk with me weand'll get there someway
on that victory day, on that victory day
(repeat)
