Tonight We're Gonna Shine (lyrics)
Verse 1.
Tonight,
For the first time in our lives
We don’t have to hear the cries
Of our fathers’ sons and wives.
Tonight,
Tonight we make a change
Tonight we rearrange
The status that we’ve claimed.
Refrain.
It’s been a long time waiting
This is the moment we’ve forever been
Anticipating.
Chorus.
No longer will we be the ones
On the receiving end of the line.
The only thing that we’ll be taking
Is the pleasure of being on the giving side.
You may not think it possible
No, you may not think it right
But no matter what
We’re on the spot
And tonight we’re gonna shine.
Verse 2.
The impossible seems so far away
When it’s been there all your days
And the one time that you feel it most
Is the time it’s gone astray.
And the time when things seem so unreal
Is the time the truth presides
And the star that you’ve been wishing on
Sparkles brighter in the sky.
Refrain.
Chorus.
Bridge.
‘Cos all our lives we’ve dreamt to be
The other way around
And now this brilliant opportunity
Says that we want to make a sound
A sound to be heard
So that we are understood
Jamming for life
Jamming for good.
Chorus.
{Last line repeat}-5x [with echo]
