Dare
Iris Kroes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How, how would you paint the world alive?
To inspire
And why
Why don't we blend it all to find a loving universe 
Our future path is giving us all 
Watch the day unfold 
Dream about and speak out loud your goals 
Dare to be you
In a world with thousand faces
You can be in million places
Where you open up a door 
Dare to be you
And believe that you can change things
Try because the world will always 
Let new things arise
Dare to be you

Try, try not to limit your own mind
Between the lines 
I, I will devise another side 
In this life 
Our future path is giving us all 
Watch the day unfold 
Dream about and speak out loud your goals 

Dare to be you
In a world with thousand faces
You can be in million places
Where you open up a door 
Dare to be you
And believe that you can change things
Try because the world will always 
Let new things arise
Dare to be you
Dare to be you
Dare to be you
In a world with thousand faces
You can be in million places
Where you open up a door 
Dare to be you
And believe that you can change things
Try because the world will always 




Let new things arise
Dare to be you
