♪ It's a big big world, but you know where to find me We'll be together and we're gonna do it our way
We'll discover we believe in each other On adventures with my friends like every day
And we're already on our way The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)

♪ The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
It's a really big world but you know where to find me We'll be together and we're gonna do it our way We'll discover we believe in each other On adventures with my friends like, every day Dawn's rising over the horizon To shine a light on what the day ahead is hiding We'll stick together, leaping into the deep end The adventure only ends when another begins
And we're already on our way The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
Far from home, but we're never feeling lonely Headstrong, stepping headlong into the dark Hold on 'cause we're heading there on our own Whatever happens, in the end, we'll forever be changed Imitate us, but you won't intimidate us We keep 'em looking for another way to break us Because we know if there's a will, there's a way back up Win or lose, we can choose to be never the same
And we're already on our way The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
If I lose my grip, will you be there to pick me up?
If I gotta run, will you be coming with me up?
'Cause I got your back and you got mine And there's nothing that can stop us now If all else fails Will you help me when I lose my way?
Set your sails To be ready for the winds of change
'Cause the journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today! (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH) (OHHHHHHHH OH OH OH OH OH OH)
The journey starts today! ♪
