I've got my eyes on the summertime sky
Traveling a country mile.
The time is here for winter rain
Singing a summer smile.  (Singing a summer smile)
I've been possessed, I may have been blessed
If I can't be found.  (If I can't be found)
You're gonna see the light in me.
I'm gonna let it shine.  Oh, oh, oooh, oh.

Ohhhhhh, oh, oh, oh, oh.  (Oh, sweet brother,)
Sister, don't you know (Sister, don't you know, oh, oooh.)
We've come a long way.
We've got a long way to go.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.  (Oh, sweet brother,)
Sweet brother, don't you know.
(Sister, don't you know, oh, oooh.)
We've come a long way.
We've got a long way to go.
Oh, oh.  Oh, oh, oh, oh.  Oooh, oooh, oooh.

Been through the fire, down to the wire
Looking for my name  (Looking for my name)
Soared as high as a one-way sign
Still remains the same.  (Still remains the same)
Now I may feel a little more real,
Somehow I have found (Somehow I have found)
The day is here to be someone.
Spread it all around.
Ohhh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

(Oh, sweet brother,) Sweet brother, uh,
Sister, don't you know.  (Sister, don't you know, oh, oooh,)
Don't you know.  (We've come a long way.)
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.  We've got a long way to go.
We're gonna make it.  (Oh, sweet brother,)
Keep on trying, keep on trying.
(Sister, don't you know, oh, oooh,)
We've come a long way.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.  I know we can make it.
(Oh, sweet brother,) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah.
Straight to the top.  (Sister, don't you know, oh, oooh,)
(Sister, won't you try.)  We've come a long way.
We've got a long way.  We've got a long way.

(Oh, oh, oh, yeah, ah.) We've come a long way.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yes we were. 
We've come a long way.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yes we were.
We've come a long way.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yes we were.
We've come a long way.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yes we were.

We.
We've come a long way.  Never give up.
Oh, yeah, ah.  We have come a long way.
We have come a long way.
Keep on trying.  We have come a long way.
We have come a long way.
Uhhhhh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
You know that we've come a long way.
Never give up.  We've come a long way.  (Oooh, oooh.)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yes we were.
We've got a long way to go, a little bit more.
Just a little bit, just a little bit more, yeah.
Oh, oh, oh.  Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
