How long before the band strikes up another number?
How long before the music starts to play?
How long before our eyes again are full of wonder?
How long before we celebrate today?
How long, how long 'till this train is leaving?
How long before our ship is under way?
'Till our eyes are full of wonder
The lightning and the thunder
How long before we celebrate today?
Can I have this dance if I missed the one before?
Will you tell me everything before we leave the floor?
And if I live a hundred lifetimes
And dream a thousand more
Will you still be standing there when I open up the door?
Hey heyâ¦Hey heyâ¦Hey hey hey hey hey heyâ¦
Hey heyâ¦Hey heyâ¦Hey hey hey hey hey heyâ¦
Iʼve seen your crooked smile and Iʼve seen your scars
And Iʼve been hungry for you right from the start
Iʼll be the moonlightâ¦Iʼll be the moonlightâ¦Iʼll be the moonlight Dancing with your broken heart
How long, how long?
'Till this train is leaving?
How long before our ship is under way?
'Till our eyes are full of wonder
The lightning and the thunder
How long before we celebrate today?
Down the river to the endless sea
Down the road to where youʼd rather be
Where the dawn is ever breaking, and dancing with your dreams
And weʼll kick this hard luck, and get up off our knees
How long, how long?
'Till this train is leaving?
How long until our ship is under way?
'Till our eyes are full of wonder
The lightning and the thunder
How long before we celebrate today?
Down the river to the endless sea
Down the road to where youʼd rather be
Where the dawn is dancing with your dreams
And weʼll kick this hard luck and get up on our feet
How long before the band strikes up another number?
How long before the music starts to play?
How long before our eyes again are full of wonder?
How long before we celebrate today?
Hey heyâ¦Hey heyâ¦Hey hey hey hey hey heyâ¦
Hey heyâ¦Hey heyâ¦Hey hey hey hey hey heyâ¦
