"I have often dreamed of a far off place, where a hero's welcome would be waiting for me, where the crowds would cheer, when they see my face, and a voice keeps saying this is where I'm meant to be. I'll be there someday, I can go the distance.
I will find my way if I can be strong, I know every mile would be worth my while. When I go the distance, I'll be right where I belong"
- Michael Bolton "Go the Distance"
"Well I'm on my way. I don't know where I'm going. I'm on my way I'm taking my time. But I don't know where"
- Paul Simon "Me & Julio Down by the School Yard"
"No bridge to burn, nowhere to turn for me. We are young. We are strong. We're not looking for where we belong"
- Mika "Kick Ass"
