Shut your eyes now
The world looks better
with the lights out
This is our time now
To create and invent
We can be giants now
So let's wait for the blackout
This is our time now
To believe and pretend
Who's to hold up the sky
if not you and I?
So long so long so long
Who's to tame the volcanoes
on mountains high?
So long so long so long
Put the knife down
Don't you cut your own heart out
I need you alive now
Learn to hold your own hand
Come to life now
Let's leave before sundown
This is our time now
Put an end to an end
Just how long does it take
to drink oceans dry?
So long so long so long
And every storm has got its own eye
So long so long so long
(And someday we'll say goodbye to goodbye)
So long so long so long, sail on (2x)
