Faith of the Heart
Rod Stewart
(Click here to hear accompanying music.)
It's been a long road
Getting from there to here
It's been a long time
But my time is finally near
And I can feel a change in the wind right now
Nothing's in my way
And they're not going to hold me down no more
No they're not going to hold me down
Chorus:
Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe...
I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's going to bend or break me
I can reach any star
Cause I've got faith
I've got faith
Faith of the heart
It's been a long night
Tryin' to find my way
Been through the darkness
Now I finally have my day
And I will see my dream come alive at last
I will touch the sky
And they're not going to hold me down no more
No they're not going to change my mind
CHORUS
I've known a wind so cold
I've seen the darkest days
But now the winds I feel
Are only winds of change
I've been to the fire
And I've been to the rain
But I'll be fine
CHORUS

"When you miss the first jump like I did,
it knocks the wind out of you.
I just dug deep and kept going. I wasn't
going to give up. If I keep that
never-say-die attitude, I always end up at the top. It was a very
tough evening and a very tough year. It felt very good. It's been a
rough road, but I got through it."
"I put in a lot this year. I'm proud of what I've done. This medal
ranks high with me because of the situation and everything I
went through in mind, body and spirit to get back to this level.
It ranks very high. Near the top."
"It's not about landing quads. It's about never giving up."
