Story Behind The Song
Not all lovers part enemies.

Lovers split up because one of them has a dream the other one can't, or won't follow.

Lyrics
Sometimes the truth begins where it ends
We started out lovers, wound up friends
You?re still looking for love and I understand
I?ll be here if you need a helping hand
I was a compass when you had no direction
I was the mirror to see your reflection
You got to shoot for the stars in the sky
Don?t let anyone make you explain when you cry
You were born to be free, like the air that you breathe
And I wish you success all your life
All your life
All your life
The vision in your head is perfectly clear
Look in your heart; face your worst fear
I know you question what?s false and what?s true
For the rest of your life, I hope you continue to
I?ll keep a piece of you in my heart for all time
You?re an inspiration when I close my eyes
Chorus
We needed each other for one brief moment
Thanks for the strength you gave to me
You?re like a vision that calls out, ?dare to believe?
Chorus
