lyrics

Fate plays cards and Chance throws dice
And we mortals pay the price
And sometimes it's more step than we can bear.
They bring ruin and renown,
Build us up and tear us down,
And fill the world with glory and despair.

But the strangest things they do
Are the ones like meeting you,
A chance or choice or fate that seems so small
That's it's only looking on
At the path your life as gone,
You'll see it changed the future after all

So we'll go on. So we'll go on...
So we'll go on.

Do you think that if you stayed
You could fill that mold they made?
Instead you chose to break it and go free.
And though leaving left you scarred
And the life you built is hard,
You made your own imperfect destiny.

Do you think if you'd been shown
All the loss your life has known,
You might have hung your head and turned away?
But with every path you cross,
You'll find love weighs more than loss
And so you'll keep on loving anyway.

So we'll go on. So we'll go on...

So we'll go on, shoulder the weight
Of our chances and choices and fortunes and fates.
So we'll go far, never alone
And someday these someones who started out strangers will turn into home
They'll turn into home

Fate plays cards and Chance throws dice
And we can't avoid the price
Of games that gods and universes play.
But whatever brought us here,
Now I choose to keep you near
And I'll fight whatever force gets in our way.

So we'll go on. So we'll go on...

So we'll go on, shoulder the weight
Of our chances and choices and fortunes and fates.
So we'll go far, never alone
Cause somehow these someones who started out strangers have turned into home
Turned into home

So we'll go on, shoulder the weight
Of our chances and choices and fortunes and fates.
So we'll go far, never alone
Cause somehow these someones who started out strangers have turned into home
Turned into home
