10. WAITING

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 a new diamond
ring out under the midnight hour
no one can touch me now
and i can't turn my back
it's too late ready or not at all

i'm so much closer than i have ever known... wake up

dawning of an 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

i'm so much closer than i have ever known... wake up
better thank your lucky stars

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
