(Waiting, waiting, waiting...)
Well I found the inspiration
At last to keep me on my feet and forget my past
And I leave out all the rest.
It's been too long since we saw even a tiny glimpse of the good life.
We wasted so much time, picking all of the wrong fights.

The crowd welcomes me with open arms
And I know inside that this is where I belong.

And now we're up and up and away
We know in our hearts we'll make it, we'll make it someday.
They keep on telling us that we'll fade.
To hell with them.
We'll pave our own way.

So here we are on the road again
Trading a good night's sleep for the street lights.
Another thousand miles,
And this is where I call home.
I wouldn't rather be anywhere in the world
Another town, another crowd. Still singing loud.

Up and up and away
We know in our hearts we'll make it, we'll make it someday.
Keep on telling us that we'll fade.
To hell with them.
We'll pave our own way.

Because no one can break us now.
No we won't be taken down.
No one can break us now.
We won't be taken down.

The crowd welcomes me with open arms
And I know inside that this is where I belong.

And we're still up and up and away
We know in our hearts we'll make it, we'll make it someday.
Keep on telling us that we'll fade.
To hell with them!
We'll pave our own way!
