You know I'm gonna keep on, gonna keep on
Nowhere else to go
I like it with the heat on, so put the heat on
I get there on my own
You know I'm gonna ride it, I won't hide it
I told you all along
But none of that don't matter, let's get it on
'Cos it pays to do your best
Do it better than the rest
And I hate to say I'm wrong,
I can see what's going on
And at times it makes me mad
'Cos this thing is all I have
Got to see a way,
Oh, how I love it, how I love it
[Chorus]
It's a way to pay the bills
But I need to get my thrills
Just until I'm satisfied
But I need to feel alive
You gotta hurt before you heal
Take a dream and make it real
I've been waiting too long
Hey I'm coming, hey I'm coming
Like a diamond in the rough
Keep on 'til I've had enough
Gonna shimmer like the sun
I can warm up everyone
It's coming like a miracle
When you rise you never fall
I've been waiting so long
Hey it's coming, hey it's coming
[Chorus]
Why wait, what you holding on for?
I just go around and around
It isn't gonna take too long
It's late, but not too late
It's time for reaching out
Somebody's gonna take me away
You gotta hurt before you heal
Take a dream and make it real
I've been waiting too long
Hey I'm coming, hey I'm coming
[Chorus]
Keep on, keep on
Gonna keep on
Keep on now [to fade]
[Chorus] You know I'm gonna keep on, gonna keep on Nowhere else to go I like it with the heat on, so put the heat on I get there on my own You know I'm gonna ride it, I won't hide it I told you all along But none of that don't matter, let's get it on 'Cos it pays to do your best Do it better than the rest And I hate to say I'm wrong, I can see what's going on And at times it makes me mad 'Cos this thing is all I have Got to see a way, Oh, how I love it, how I love it [Chorus] It's a way to pay the bills But I need to get my thrills Just until I'm satisfied But I need to feel alive You gotta hurt before you heal Take a dream and make it real I've been waiting too long Hey I'm coming, hey I'm coming Like a diamond in the rough Keep on 'til I've had enough Gonna shimmer like the sun I can warm up everyone It's coming like a miracle When you rise you never fall I've been waiting so long Hey it's coming, hey it's coming [Chorus] Why wait, what you holding on for?
