Lyrics

Deep in the night, The winds blow cold. And in a heartbeat, The fear takes hold.


Deep in the storm, There's a place that's soft and still. Where the road waits to be taken, If you only will.


The voices inside you, Can lead your soul astray. Believe in what you dream, Don't turn away, Don't you turn away.


Reach for the light, You might touch the sky. Stand on the mountaintop, And see yourself flying. Reach for the light, To capture a star. Come out of the darkness, And find out who you are.


Somewhere in time, The truth shines through. And the spirit knows, What it has to do.


Somewhere in you, There's a power with no name. It can rise to meet the moment, And burn like a flame.


And you can be stronger, Than anything you know. Hold on to what you see, Don't let it go, Don't you let it go.


Reach for the light, You might touch the sky. Stand on the mountaintop, And see yourself flying. Reach for the light, To capture a star. Come out of the darkness, And find out who you are.


There's no turning back, When your destiny is calling. Listen to the thunder roll, And let your heart break free!


(Flute solo)


(Reach for the light!) Reach for the light, You might touch the sky. (Stand on a mountaintop!) Stand on the mountaintop, And see yourself flying. (See yourself flying! Reach for the light To capture a star, Come out of the darkness, And find out who you are.


Reach for the light, You might touch the sky. Stand on the mountaintop, And see yourself flying. Reach for the light, To capture a star. Come out of the darkness, And find out who you are.


Yes, reach for the light.
