All of our lives we look through windows Wondering if there's a chance we'll see All of our ways and all of our footsteps Are leading us back to our reason to be They're leading us back to our reason to be
I once was a lad with great expectations Smiling and showing their future to me And now I'm a man I see more than ever You leading us back to our reason to be You leading us back to our reason to be
Chorus: Our reason to be Our reason to be Everybody's got to have a reason to be A reason to be Oh, oh, oh, oh Come on
Oh, hundreds of lives and thousands of faces Have been to the island Where dreams don't come free And now I suppose I need more than want them To lead us all back to our reason to be To lead us all back to our reason to be
