[Verse 1]
Half the world is sleeping
Half the world's awake
Half can hear their hearts beat
Half just hear them break
I am but a traveler, in most every way
Ask me what you want to know

[Chorus]
What a journey it has been
And the end is not in sight
But the stars are out tonight
And they're bound to guide my way

[Post-Chorus]
When they're shining on my life
I can see a better day
I won't let the darkness in
What a journey it has been

[Verse 2]
I have been to sorrow
I have been to bliss
Where I'll be tomorrow
I can only guess
Through the darkest desert
Through the deepest snow
Forward always forward, I go
[Chorus]
What a journey it has been
And the end is not in sight
But the stars are out tonight
And they're bound to guide my way

[Post-Chorus]
When they're shining on my life
I can see a better day
I won't let the darkness in
What a journey it has been

[Bridge]
Forward, always forward
Onward, always up
Catching every drop of hope
In my empty cup

[Chorus]
What a journey it has been
And the end is not in sight
But the stars are out tonight
And they're bound to guide my way

[Post-Chorus]
When they're shining on my life
I can see a better day
I won't let the darkness in
What a journey it has been
[Outro]
What a journey it has been
