歌曲歌詞
I've been waiting a long time
For this moment to come
I'm destined for anything at all
Downtown lights will be shining
On me like in a diamond 圓環
Out under the midnight hour
Well no one can touch me now
And I can't 轉動 my back
It's too late ready or not at all
Well I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up
Dawning of a new era
Calling don't let it catch you falling
Ready or not at all
So close enough to taste it
Almost I can embrace this
feeling on the tip of my tongue
Well I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up
Better thank your lucky stars
Say hey hey
I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up
Better thank your lucky stars
Say hey hey
I've been waiting a lifetime
For this moment to come
I'm destined for anything at all
Dumbstruck color me stupid
Good luck you're gonna need it
Where I'm going if I get there at all
Wake up
Better thank your lucky stars
