Lyrics
Our Time
A new day has dawned
The sun climbs high in the sky
The time has finally come
To stand up and start a new life
We've grown up and learned how to love
Had some laughs, shed a few tears
All those days are now just a memory
Our tomorrows are finally here
IT'S OUR TIME TO WALK, IT'S OUR TIME TO RUN
IT'S OUR TIME TO BREAK FREE, FEEL THE WARMTH OF THE SUN
IT'S OUR TIME TO BE BROKEN, AND EVEN TO CRY
OUR TIME TO WIN, STRETCH OUR WINGS, LEARN TO FLY.
IT'S OUR TIME TO LIVE, OUR TIME TO LIVE
THE TIME OF OUR LIVES
I've said my goodbyes
Hope I'm ready to be on my own
'Cause there's no turning back
Time to leave, find a new home
I'll set my course for a new life
Free to be who I've wanted to be
I'll follow the winding road
And take hold of my destiny.
'Cause it's my time...Chorus with "my" instead of "our"
I know it hasn't been easy
Doesn't matter if you lost your way
Don't give up when you're so close to winning
Take a chance, start over today
Chorus
