lyrics
I can’t believe I…
I don’t believe I…
What am I doing?
What am I thinking?
I really oughtn’t…
But up I shot’nd…
What am I doing?
What am I thinking?
Step by step,
Leg by leg,
Inch by inch,
Foot by foot,
Moving forward,
Up ahead,
The great unknown.
Not a sense
Of fear or dread
Walking past
The chimney soot
Marching onward
Tread by tread
To the great unknown.
And who knows what I’ll find there?
Who knows what it will be?
Who can tell just how it will
Inspire a change in me?
Who knows how you’ll grow now?
Because of what you see.
Who makes all my choices?
Who can set me free?
Me!
Step by step,
Leg by leg,
Inch by inch,
Foot by foot,
Moving forward,
Up ahead,
The great unknown.
Take a journey
To your dream.
Make a move
To master it.
Brave the unknown arms outspread.
The great unknown!
The great…
Look what I’m doing!
This is unthinkable!
Look what I’m doing!
Look what I’m doing!
