In the days so long ago 
All the things I've come to know 
Thank God it's over 
With a cool look in my eyes 
Holding the pace, I've got to stride 
And try to keep my sanity 
Oh, it's time for letting go 
When I 
Cross the line 
This is the place; this is life I want to know 
All on my own, 
So mighty yet so simple as the river flow 
And when I'm falling from grace, 
This is the dream; this is the faith I must believe 
I've chosen to be, 
To be the one to criticize the best of me 
Just another lesson learned 
Though the wounds will heal in time 
The pain doesn't stop, it just subsides 
It's never ending 
All the thoughts rage through my head 
Things that I've done and things I've said 
There'll be no starting over 
Oh, it's time for letting go 
When I 
Cross the line 
This is the place; this is life I want to know 
All on my own, 
So mighty yet so simple as the river flow 
And when I'm falling from grace, 
This is the dream; this is the faith I must believe 
I've chosen to be, 
To be the one to criticize the best of me 
And there's still so much to learn, 
But I'm taking my time 
And I'm crying out for number one 
After all the damage has been done 
Oh, all I want is satisfaction 
Walk the path without distraction 
To live this life so divine, 
Cross the line
