Verse 1

I want the sun to shine on me 
I want the truth to set me free 
I wish the followers would lead 
with a voice so strong it could knock me to my knees 

Chorus

hold on world 'cause you don't know what's coming 
hold on world 'cause I'm not jumping off 
hold onto this boy a little longer 
take another trip around the sun

Verse 2

if I jumped into the ocean to believe 
If I climbed a mountain would I have to reach?  
do I even dare to speak?--to dream?--believe? 
give me a voice so strong
I can question what I have seen

Chorus

hold on world 'cause you don't know what's coming 
hold on world 'cause I'm not jumping off 
hold onto this boy a little longer 
take another trip around the sun

Interlude

around the sun
around the sun
around the sun

Outro

let my dreams set me free. 
believe. believe. 
now now now now now now....(now now now now now)
....
now now now now now now
Now now now now now now...
Now now now now now now...
