Out There

[Barnum]
Staying home, living day by day
May be safe, but it can't be duller
Seeing things only black and gray
When the world is alive with color
Doing just as your neighbors do
May be wise, but it ain't so clever
Every man has a dream or two
Let 'em go and they're gone forever

Out there somewhere just out of sight
There's a world that's blazing with light
Ain't each man alive got the right?
To stray just a mite from the straight and narrow
Shoot through the night like a flaming arrow

Turning back should the highway bend
Turning down every chance you're given
Takes the risk out of life, but friend
How the hell can you call that livin'?
Staying put in a pumpkin shell
Is a bleak and depressing habit
There's a ring on the carousel
And it's yours if you'll only grab it

Out there somewhere just down the line
Lies a world of glory and shine
One square foot there's gotta be mine
Once in his life every man decides
Once when he stands where the road divides
Once on a hill as the morning grows
Once if he will he can see those..

Fires glow, flags streaming
Spires grow, towers gleaming

In a land where the dawn is clear
In a sky where the sun's forever
On a plain where it's spring all year
And the dark of the night is never

Somewhere out there just out of sight
In that world that's shining with light
Ain't each man alive got the right?
Once in his life to forget the past
Once in his life to behold at last
With his own two eyes what
Lies..Out..There!
