That old wind thatand's whipping out there
itand's whistlinand' your tune
that wind blew pyramids to egypt
and footprints to the moon
and that old star that you been wishinand' on
is shininand' mighty bright
but itand's the fire inside your heart
thatand's gonna lead you to the light
how you ever gonna know
what itand's like to live there
how you ever gonna know victory
how you ever gonna know
what itand's like when dreams become reality
how you ever gonna know
how it feels to hold her
how you ever gonna know
what itand's like to dance
how you ever gonna know
if you never take a chance
you know failure isnand't failure
if a lesson from itand's learned
i guess love would not be love
without a risk of being burned
anything in life worth havinand'
lord, it has its sacrifice
but the gift that youand're receiving
is worth more than a price
how you ever gonna know
what itand's like to live there
how you ever gonna know
what you never knew
how you ever gonna know
if youand're down here doinand'
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 want to get the truth to admit it
you gotta find out for yourself
how you ever gonna know
what itand's like to be there
how you ever gonna know
if youand're the best
how you ever gonna know
what you believe in
if you donand't put it to the test
how you ever gonna know
how it feels to hold him
how you ever gonna know
what livinand' means
how you ever gonna know
if you never chase the dreams
how you ever gonna know
your potential
how you ever gonna know victory
how you ever gonna know
what itand's like when dreams become reality
how you ever gonna know
how it feels to hold her
how you ever gonna know
what itand's like to dance
how you ever gonna know
if you never take a chance
