Lyrics

we were standin' on the border
ready to attack
had our course laid out before us
no turnin' back
well we headed into battle
and we took 'em overnight
yes we won the war
we thought we ended the fight

now we're standin' at the crossroads
don't know which way to go
we've been here too long and it's startin' to show
now it's one way or another
we're runnin' out of time
we've got to make our move
but first we've got to make up our minds

'cause we have always pulled together
whenever it was fallin' apart
our courage was the measure of our heart
we've been on this road forever
the victories have come and gone
but the strenght of our endeavor
keeps us rollin' on rollin' on

it's been a long time comin'
but there's nothin' gonna stop us now
there's a spirit that keeps us runnin' somehow
and though we're searchin' for the answers
and we're wonderin' just what we've won
no one questions our intention to get the job done

dynamic message...lyrics and music...
