Lyrics

All your life, you've dreamed of being the best
It's not enough just to be all you can be
And now that you've put yourself to the ultimate test
You're nearing the dream you've always been able to see

It's your turn to shine
The world's been waiting for you
And all the things that you do
Will bring you closer to your dream

Now your ability shows
The people watching you know
How persistent and strong you can be
When goin' for gold is a goal you achieve

Your life's been lived dedicated to causes that took you
On missions that made common men look up to your ways
And everything now is so positive it makes you look to
The rest of your years as being the best of your days

It's your turn to shine
The world's been waiting for you
And all the things that you do
Will bring you closer to your dream

It's not that your effort wasn't on a grand scale
You put in your time and you took your licks like a champ
And now that the world devotes its attention to hail you
You're making your mark and leaving the best as your stamp

Congratulations, you're done
Eclipsing the stars and the sun
Now that your legacy lives
You've got so much more you want to give

It's your turn to shine
The world's been waiting for you
And everything that you do
Will bring you so much closer to your dream
