It's time to realize I'm on my own  It's time to leave my childhood dreams alone  Now I belong - know right from wrong - because of you  I've learned how - how to break free  I'll make a stand and shape my destiny  I'll use the faith that you instilled in me    Although we're far apart  we will always be  beating as one heart  together endlessly    I wanna thank you for the precious gifts you've given me  You taught me selfrespect - humanity  You gave me strength when I felt weak when I felt down  Right by my side - always around  I cherish every moment that we shared  Yes, every day I know how much you cared    Although we're far apart  we will always be  beating as one heart  together endlessly    Nothing can drive us apart  'cause we will always be  together as one heart  together endlessly
