Lyrics
I gotta see you moving fast See you come my way See the dreams, I hope they last Never fade away. Gotta see the lights above Make it loud tonight Gotta set it all a-fire Set it all a-light See the flashing lights Hear the thunder roar I am gonna set you all a-light Gotta make it man I ain't got a choice Gotta fill this hall tonight Helpless Helpless Helpless Helpless I don't know what I'm gonna do Maybe not tonight Gotta set you all a-fire Gotta treat you right. I can see the flashing lights Lit before your love Gotta hear the thunder roar Coming from above. See the flashing lights Hear the thunder roar I'm gonna set you all a-light Gotta make it man I ain't got a choice Gotta fill this hall tonight Helpless Helpless Helpless Helpless I can see the stars But, I can't see what's going on Every night alone I sing my song just for fun. Only time will tell If I'll make it myself someday This stage is mine Music is my destiny. Cannot squeeze the life from me! I can see the stars But I can't see what's going on Every night alone I sing my song just for fun. Only time will tell If I'll make it myself someday This stage is mine Music is my destiny. Cannot squeeze the life from me!
