lyrics

It's time to see there’s love to send
And realize there'll always be a final friend
With everything we asked for...as everything will be.

By running hard and growing strong…
Will I find I've been on the right course all along?

A sign that says now leaving this state that you've been in...
Don't be afraid, you've got it made, BECAUSE YOU WIN!

It’s time to be the wiser man
Achieving every glory that I know I can
Then with your love we'll win this game
Though at the finish line we may not be the same.

I'm telling you we're breaking this stalemate we've been in
Don't be afraid, you've got it made, BECAUSE—

YOU WIN all that you wanted
YOU WIN all that you need
DON'T LOSE sight of your essence
DON'T LOSE what you believe

YOU WIN each time you're honest
And every time you care
DON'T LOSE your true perspective
DON'T LOSE because you dare--TO WIN!

It’s time to see there’s love to send
And realize it's always you—final friend.
It’s time to be the wiser man
Achieving every glory that I know I can...

With everything we asked for--as everything will be.
Combining strength and knowledge--now everyone will see.
That we at last have broken that stalemate we've been in.

Don't be afraid...
You've got it made—
BECAUSE YOU WIN!
