Lyrics
TV version
It's a big big world, but you know where to find me
We'll be together and we're gonna do it our way
We'll discover we believe in each other
On adventures with my friends like every day
And we're already on our way
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today
Full version
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
It's a big big world, but you know where to find me
We'll be together and we're gonna do it our way
We'll discover we believe in each other
On adventures with my friends like every day
Dawns[sic] rising over the horizon
To shine a light on what the day ahead is hiding
We'll stick together leaping into the deep-end
The adventure only ends when another begins
And we're already on our way
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
Far from home but we're never feeling lonely
Headstrong stepping headlong into the dark
Hold on cause we're heading there on our own
Whatever happens, in the end, will forever be changed
Imitate us but you won't intimidate us
We keep em'[sic] looking for another way to break us
Because we know if there's a will there's a way back up
Win or lose we can choose to be never the same
And we're already on our way
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
If I lose my grip will you be there to pick me up
If I gotta run will you be coming with me up
Cause I got your back and you got mine
And there's nothing that can stop us now
If all else fails, will you help me when I lose my way
Set your sails, to be ready for the winds of change
Cause the journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today!
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
(OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today
