When we were young we had dream of going to the top We though we had all that it look and we would never stop I see now that we were naive to think we could succeed We didn't have the luck that so many times we need Why now ? Why did we have to wait so long Why now ? Why didn't you all hear our song Why change the way we dreamed we could be Bring back hope it's not too late for me Times have changed and we are older, I can't help but say That if I had my life again I'd do it much the same The heartache and the break ups that I've hadhave hurt me But you know You grow into a better man, that's just the way it goes Why now ? Why did we have to wait so long Why now ? Why didn't you all hear our song Why change the way we dreamed we could be Bring back hope it's not too late for me (Lead Break) Looking back on things we do and say it seems so strange That through these words I'm singing my dreams can live again I'm not saying that that we'll make a mark I'm not such a fool But if you're listening to me now some things you need to do Follow your dreams chase them down and work hard as you can You may succeed if Lady luck plays you the winning hand As long as you can look back on your life and say "I've tried" You stand up with the best of them and face your time with pride Why now ? Why did we have to wait so long Why now ? Why didn't you all hear our song Why change the way we dreamed we could be Bring back hope it's not too late for me
