We started out a long time ago

We didn't know what to do

Knockin' our romances, we took the chances

That a lot of us do

Well, we've seen strange places

We fell on our faces

It was all on the line

Cause we believed in what we were

And we know that we would see it in time



A reason to carry on

Is the feelin' when the music's done

Maybe we'll take someone's whole life

(And) turn their head around

Open up the door



Listen to me you've got to help me

I can't help myself

It's been a long long time

Wish it were mine

I can't help myself

I've been searchin' everywhere

Lookin' here and there

And I finally see

It may take forever and it never

But will you listen to me



A reason to carry on

Is the feelin' when the music's done

Maybe we'll take someone's whole life

(And) turn their head around

It's a reason to carry on, it's a reason to carry

Open up the door



A reason to carry on

Is the feelin' when the music's done

Maybe we'll take someone's whole life

And turn their head around

Open up the door oh oh

A reason to carry on

Is a feelin' when the music's done

Maybe we'll take someone's whole life 

Turn their head around

It's a reason to carry on

It's a reason to carry on

Open up the door
