Lyrics

Some are born to lose their heads
And some are born to use them
And some will never know their ends
And some are born to choose them
Don't you let your fantasies be blinded by the light
You don't have to save your wildest dreams for the night
Don't hold back, don't hold back
Don't hold back, reach out
Touch the sky with your mind's eye
Don't be afraid to reach out
Some you win and some you lose
And some will bring you sorrow
And some are born to lead the rest
And some are born to follow
Don't rely on miracles to open any door
And don't you let a shadow be your guide anymore
Don't hold back, don't hold back
Don't hold back, reach out
Touch the sky with your mind's eye
Don't be afraid to reach out
Ride the wave of destiny
Rise above the crest
And believe everything that happens to you
Happens for the best
Don't allow the world of men
To turn your head no more
'Cause if you can't let yourself go
What are you saving yourself for?
Don't hold back, don't hold back
Don't hold back, reach out
Touch the sky with your mind's eye
Don't be afraid to reach out
Ah, don't you let your fantasies be blinded by the light
For you don't have to save your wildest dreams for the night
Don't hold back, don't hold back
Don't hold back, reach out
Touch the sky with your mind's eye
Don't be afraid to reach out
Touch the sky with your mind's eye
Don't be afraid to reach out
Touch the sky with your mind's eye
Don't be afraid to reach out
