Hold up... hold on... don’t be scared
You’ll never change what’s been and gone
May your smile.... Shine on.... Don’t be scared
Your destiny may keep you warm.

Cos all of the stars are fading away
Just try not to worry you’ll see them some day
Take what you need and be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

Get up.... Come on... why you scared
You’ll never change what been and gone

Who'll rise?
It would be so nice to hear you say
"Thank you for the good times"
Before the good times fly away
Your eyes
Are telling lines
from some of the stories on the way
It's so nice
But don't let the good times fly away

I drink to every sucker standing here
among the few who try and cheat the years
There's always one of us who's blown away
Or strapped and stopped for breath along the way

Who'll rise?
It would be so nice to hear you say
"Thank you for the good times"
Before the good times fly away

I drink to every sucker standing here
among the few who try and cheat the years
There's always one of us who's blown away
Or stopped and strapped for cash along the way

Who'll rise?
It would be so nice to hear you say
"Thank you for the good times"
Before the good times fly away

Thank you for the good times
Before the good times fly... away

I hope we have found our sweet release
I hope I fill that hole in you soul
I hope that at last we get some peace
I hope the light shines on we as one

There'll never be enough to learn
the river's deep and the road is long
and every which way we turn
always seems insane
but it makes me feel alive

Shout it out loud
when I'm alive
I Shout it out loud
when I'm alive
I Shout it out loud
when I'm alive
I Shout it out loud

As we wish the world away
D'you think it's all a dream
cos that's what it seems

Every night we hope and pray
that we can do enough
to keep our love
