The Journey Lyrics

When I was lost
I saw you pointing towards the sun
I know I'm not the only one standing here
and in the darkness I was walking through the night
I could see your guiding light, very clear

This is your life
This is your moment
This is your life
This is your moment

Nananana Nanananananana Nananananana Nanana ah
Nananana Nanananananana Nananananana Nanana ah

When I was weak we both went walking on the sand
We were walking hand in hand, it appeared
Once set our footprints when you carried me along
It was then that I abandoned my fears

This is your life
This is your moment
This is your life
This is your moment

Nananana Nanananananana Nananananana Nanana ah
Nananana Nanananananana Nananananana Nanana ah

This is your life
This is your moment
This is your life
This is your moment

(Nananana Nanananananana Nananananana Nanana ah
Nananana Nanananananana Nananananana Nanana ah)

This is your moment
This is your life
your life

Nananana Nanananananana Nananananana Nanana ah

This is your time

(Nananana Nanananananana Nananananana Nanana ah
Nananana Nanananananana Nananananana Nanana ah)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
