Fortune Favors The Brave

Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Tim Rice
Performed by Adam Pascal and Chorus


Soldiers
Fortune favors the brave
Fortune favors the brave 

Radames
We have swept to glory
Egypt's mastery expands
From the Nile's northern delta
To the dry, dry southern sands
The more we find, the more we see
The more we come to learn
The more that we explore
The more we shall return

Soldiers
Fortune favors the brave

Radames
It's all worked out, my road is clear
The lines of latitude extend
Way beyond my wildest dreams
Toward some great triumphant end
We seized the day, we turned the tide
We touched the stars, we mocked the grave
We moved into uncharted lands

Radames and soldiers
Fortune favors the brave

Radames
The more we find, the more we see
The more we come to learn
The more that we explore
The more we shall return

Nothing is an accident
We are free to have it all
We are what we want to be
It's in ourselves to rise and fall
This is easy to believe
When distant places call to me
It's harder from the palace yard
Fortune favors the free
Fortune favors the young
Fortune favors the brave
