I would cross the ocean
swim the longest river known
climb the highest mountain
to get there

I would crawl down on my knees
if only one day I could reach
the place I know exists
in my mind

I know it's there, I've seen it
I know it's there, I feel it
if somehow I could reach it
but maybe I'm too scared

I don't wanna live without it
and there's no doubt about it
I'll find it where I least expect it
and I won't be alone

when I reach home
