I wonder if when all is done

anyone heard my voice

from the start we have no choice

our journeys just begin



I'll never know if i was right

did i fight hard enough

for when the battles grew to rough

should i have given in



but here i stand and swear to you

i did the best that i could do

i know my voice was just a whisper

but someone may have heard

there were nights the moon above me stirred

and let me grab ahold

my hands...have touched...the gold



my hearts been driven by extremes

light with dreams tight with fear

but still god knows that i was here

and i was so alive



so now i lay the past to rest

for in the end i did my best

you have to live the life your given

and never close your eyes

you hold strong and stare into the sky

and burn against the cold

for any moment....you might find the gold



and there was joy

through it all

and i am standing tall



I know my voice was just a whisper

but someone must have heard

there were nights the moon above me stirred

and let my life take hold

i rode across that sky

and once i touched the gold



here in my own two hands...

i once held....the gold
