lyrics

Well you’re standing on the edge
Don’t know which way to lean
Everything looks scary
When you’re caught in between
Where you’ve been and where you’re going

But it’s time to make the leap
Time to forge ahead
Not time to worry
Bout what have could have been instead
Cuz there’s no way of knowing

So just follow your heart
Follow your dream
You can be anyone, you could be anything
When you’re stuck in your head
And don’t know where to start
Follow your dream
Follow your heart

So there you go
Off into the world
Steely-eyed determination
Majesty unfurled
They’re not prepared, for what they’re getting

There’ll be good days and bad
Friends will come and go
Hold your head up high
Never let go
You’re moving forward, not forgetting

So just follow your heart
Follow your dream
You can be anyone, you could be anything
When you’re stuck in your head
And don’t know where to start
Follow your dream
Follow your heart

They tell you that the world is hard out there
That may be true but I don’t care
Cause I know you’ll make its through
If you’ll just be who you are

And follow your heart
Follow your dream
You can be anyone, you could be anything
When you’re stuck in your head
And don’t know where to start
Follow your dream
Follow your heart
