Lyrics
[Verse 1]
At fifty-eight, a dream unfolds,
A ticket to the stories told,
Across the ocean, to the land so wide,
With hope and wonder, I begin this ride.
New York’s lights, they call my name,
A city where the heart’s aflame,
From Broadway shows to Central Park,
Every corner leaves its mark.
[Chorus]
This is my time, this is my place,
A journey that I can’t erase,
The world is waiting, and so am I,
With open arms, I touch the sky.
[Verse 2]
Washington’s history in every stone,
From monuments to the unknown,
In the footsteps of the brave and wise,
I see the world through new eyes.
New Haven whispers with ivy walls,
A scholar’s dream in ancient halls,
Learning from the past, I find my way,
Every moment, a brand new day.
[Chorus]
This is my time, this is my place,
A journey that I can’t erase,
The world is waiting, and so am I,
With open arms, I touch the sky.
[Verse 3]
Boston’s charm with cobblestone streets,
Stories of freedom where history meets,
From tea parties to revolution’s start,
Each step I take, I feel the heart.
In every city, in every face,
I find a part of this grand embrace,
Life’s an adventure, never too late,
To find your passion, to meet your fate.
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la,la
(This is my Time)
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la,la
(This is my place)
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la,la
[Verse 4]
Through winding roads and skies so high,
I’ve learned to spread my wings and fly,
With every mile, a dream revived,
In every challenge, I feel alive.
When doubt, creeps in, I stand my ground,
With faith in heart, I’m never bound,
For in this journey, I have found,
That dreams are where the soul is crowned.
[Chorus]
This is my time, this is my place,
(Hey, This is my Time!)
A journey that I can’t erase,
(Hey, I can’t erase!)
The world is waiting, and so am I,
With open arms, I touch the sky.
(Hey, I touch the sky!)
[Bridge]
In every sunrise, a new path is laid,
Age is just a number, dreams never fade,
I’ll carry these memories, near or far,
Each moment treasured, like a shooting star.
(Ok!, Hey!, Whoooo!)
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la,la
(This is my Time!)
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la,la
(Hey!)
[Outro]
This is my time, this is my place,
I’ll find my spirit, and always smile!
