1.The Spirit Carries On - Dream Theater
Nicholas:
Where did we come from?
Why are we here?
Where do we go when we die?
What lies beyond
And what lay before?
Is anything certain in life?
They say, "Life is too short,"
"The here and the now"
And "You're only given one shot"
But could there be more,
Have I lived before,
Or could this be all that we've got?
If I die tomorrow
I'd be allright
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
I used to be frightened of dying
I used to think death was the end
But that was before
I'm not scared anymore
I know that my soul will transcend
I may never find all the answers
I may never understand why
I may never prove
What I know to be true
But I know that I still have to try
If I die tomorrow
I'd be allright
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
Victoria:
"Move on, be brave
Don't weep at my grave
Because I am no longer here
But please never let
Your memory of me disappear"
Nicholas:
Safe in the light that surrounds me
Free of the fear and the pain
My questioning mind
Has helped me to find
The meaning in my life again
Victoria's real
I finally feel
At peace with the girl in my dreams
And now that I'm here
It's perfectly clear
I found out what all of this means
If I die tomorrow
I'd be allright
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
Where did we come from?
Why are we here?
Where do we go when we die?
What lies beyond
And what lay before?
Is anything certain in life?
They say, "Life is too short,"
"The here and the now"

2.Never Had A Dream Come True - S Club 7
Jo:
Everybody's got something
They had to leave behind
One regret from yesterday
That just seems to grow with time
There's no use looking back or wondering (or wondering)
How it could be now or might have been (or might have been)
All this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go
Chorus:
I never had a dream come true
'Till the day that I found you
Even though, I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
(never found the words to say)
You're the one I think about each day
(you're the one I think about each day)
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be with you
Ooooooohh yeah
Jo:
Somewhere in my memory
I've lost all sense of time
And tomorrow can never be
'Cause yesterday is all that fills my mind
There's no use looking back or wondering (or wondering)
How it should be now or might have been (might have been)
All this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go
Chorus:
I never had a dream come true
'Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on

Jo:
You'll always be the dream that fills my head
Yes you will, say you will, you know you will, oh baby
You'll always be the one I know I'll never forget
There's no use looking back or wondering (or wondering)
Because love is a strange and funny thing (and funny thing)
No matter how I try and try
I just can't say good-bye, no, no, no, no
Chorus:
I never had a dream come true

4.Only Hope - Mandy Moore
There's a song that's inside of my soul.
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold.
But you sing to me over and over and over again.
So, I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope.
Sing to me the song of the stars.
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again.
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again.
So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours
I know now, you're my only hope.
I give you my destiny.
I'm giving you all of me.
I want your symphony, singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs, I'm giving it back.
So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours
I pray, to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope.
hmmmmm, hmmmmm, oooooh.
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again

5.Reach - Gloria Estefan
Some dreams live on in time forever
Those dreams you want with all your heart
And I'll do whatever it takes
Follow through with the promise I make
Put it all on the line
What I hoped for at last would be mine
If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
I'm gonna be stronger
Know that I've tried my very best
And put my spirit to the test
If I could reach
Some days are meant to be remembered
Those days we rise above the stars
So I'll go the distance this time
See it more the higher I climb
That the more I believe
All the more that this dream will be mine
If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
I'm gonna be stronger
Know that I've tried my very best
Put my spirit to the test
If I could reach
If I
could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be so much stronger, yes I am
I put my spirit to the test
If I could reach
If I could if I could if I could reach
I'd reach I'd reach I'd reach so much higher
Those dreams you want with all your heart
And I'll do whatever it takes
Follow through with the promise I make
Put it all on the line
What I hoped for at last would be mine
If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
I'm gonna be stronger
Know that I've tried my very best
And put my spirit to the test
If I could reach

6.Show Me The Way - Styx
Every night I say a prayer, in the hopes that theres a Heaven.
But every day Im more confused, as the saints turn in to sinners.
All the heros and legends I knew as a Child, have fallen to idols of clay.
And I feel this empty place inside, so afraid, that I've lost my faith.
Show me the way.
Show me the way.
Take me tonight, to the river and wash my illusions away.
Please show me the way.
As I slowly drift to sleep, for a moment, dreams are sacred.
Close my eyes, and know there's peace,
in a world so filled with hatred.
That I wake up each morning, and turn on the news, and find we've so far to go.
And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid, I just won't know.
Show me the way.
Show me the way.
Bring me tonight, to the mountain and take my confusion away.
And show me the way.
And if I see your light, should I believe?
Tell me, how will I know?
show me the way
show me the way
take me tonight to river and wash my illusions away
show me the way
show me the way
give me the strength and the courage to belive i will get there someday
and please show me the way
every night i say a prayer in hopes that theres a Heaven

7.The Man Who Sold The World - Nirvana
We passed upon the stair
We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there
He said I was his friend
Which came as a surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
A long long time ago
Oh no, not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World
I laughed and shook his hand
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land (Alt: I searched for foreign land)
For years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazely stare
At all the millions here (Alt 1: We walked a million years)(Alt 2: With multimillionaires)(Alt 3: We walked a million hills)
I must have died alone (Alt: I must have died along)
A long, long time ago
[x2]
Who knows?
Not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the Man who Sold the World
We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there
He said I was his friend
Which came as a surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
A long long time ago
Oh no, not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World
I laughed and shook his hand
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land (Alt: I searched for foreign land)

Is this the hope of the world in my hands
I'll take this moment to be all that i can
Look to you to see the future

9.Lose Your Way - Sophie B. Hawkins
Lose Your Way
I have no confidence
And I can’t see why I should
But I could do most anything for you
And you know I would
I try too hard
And then I give up way too easily
I'm the runner up inside of you
And you’re the winner inside of me
Lose your way
And I will follow
Here today
And here tomorrow
Like my freedom I know
I’ll never let you go
I still wish on the evening star
And I s’pose I always will
Every child loses something
A whole life can’t fulfill
And when you cry I feel the sky
Burst open in my veins
If loving you makes a slave of me
Then I'll spend my whole life in chains
Lose your way
And I will follow
Here today
And here tomorrow
Like my freedom I know
I’ll never let you go.
Walk the line
I’ll walk inside you
Change your mind
Let your love decide you
It’s the reason I know
You’ll never let me go
I have no confidence
And I can’t see why I should
But I could do most anything for you
And you know I would
I try too hard
And then I give up way too easily
I'm the runner up inside of you
And you’re the winner inside of me
Lose your way
And I will follow
Here today
And here tomorrow
Like my freedom I know
I’ll never let you go
I still wish on the evening star
And I s’pose I always will
Every child loses something
A whole life can’t fulfill
And when you cry I feel the sky
Burst open in my veins
If loving you makes a slave of me
Then I'll spend my whole life in chains
Lose your way
And I will follow
Here today
And here tomorrow
Like my freedom I know
I’ll never let you go.
Walk the line
I’ll walk inside you
Change your mind
Let your love decide you
It’s the reason I know
You’ll never let me go
