When the world seems far beyond me And I have no place to go, When my life seems cold and empty And I feel I'm all alone, Then a song that I remember Helps to ease my troubled mind And I find the strength within me To reach out just one more time. For as long as I have music, As long as there's a song for me to sing, I can find my way; I can see a brighter day. The music in my life will set my spirit free! When the road is dark and lonely, And I feel I want to cry, When the dreams I keep inside me Seem to fade and almost die, Then I call upon my music And it helps to dry my tears, And I know that I can make it. I'll go on, despite my fears. For as long as I have music, As long as there's a song for me to sing, I can find my way; I can see a brighter day. The music in my life will set my spirit free Set it free.
