A certain measure of innocence
Willing to appear naive
A certain degree of imagination
A measure of make-believe
A certain degree of surrender

To the forces of the light and love
A certain measure of tolerance
A willingness to rise above
One little victory
One little victory
One little victory
One little victory
Celebrate the moment
As it turns into one more
Another chance at victory
Another chance to score
The measure of the moment
Is a difference of degrees
Just one little victory
A spirit breaking free
The greatest act can be
One little victory
The greatest act can be
One little victory
One little victory
One little victory
One little victory
One little victory
Just one little victory
Just one little victory
One little victory
One little victory
