Garth Brooks - How You Ever Gonna Know lyrics

rate me

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
