How You Ever Gonna Know - Garth Brooks

That old wind that's whipping out there 
It's whistlin' your tune 
That wind blew pyramids to Egypt 
And footprints to the moon 
And that old star that you been wishin' on 
Is shinin' mighty bright 
But it's the fire inside your heart 
That's gonna lead you to the light 
How you ever gonna know 
What it's like to live there 
How you ever gonna know victory 
How you ever gonna know 
What it's like when dreams become reality 
How you ever gonna know 
How it feels to hold her 
How you ever gonna know 
What it's like to dance 
How you ever gonna know 
If you never take a chance 
You know failure isn't failure 
If a lesson from it's learned 
I guess love would not be love 
Without a risk of being burned 
Anything in life worth havin' 
Lord, it has its sacrifice 
But the gift that you're receiving 
Is worth more than a price 
How you ever gonna know 
What it's like to live there 
How you ever gonna know 
What you never knew 
How you ever gonna know 
If you're down here doin' 
What the good Lord put you here to do 
How you ever gonna know 
If you could have done it 
How you ever gonna know 
How it feels to fly 
How you ever gonna know 
If you never dare to try 
Listen not to the critics 
Who put their own dreams on the shelf 
If you want to get the truth to admit it 
You gotta find out for yourself 
How you ever gonna know 
What it's like to be there 
How you ever gonna know 
If you're the best 
How you ever gonna know 
What you believe in 
If you don't put it to the test 
How you ever gonna know 
How it feels to hold him 
How you ever gonna know 
What livin' means 
How you ever gonna know 
If you never chase the dreams 
How you ever gonna know 
Your potential 
How you ever gonna know victory 
How you ever gonna know 
What it's like when dreams become reality 
How you ever gonna know 
How it feels to hold her 
How you ever gonna know 
What it's like to dance 
How you ever gonna know 
If you never take a chance
