Don't make me wait, I can't take it so much longer
My final day and I feel so much stronger
I always knew that the time to celebrate
Was coming close, moving closer
Time stands still, now it's down to fate
And still I wait
Still I wait
Don't make me wait, I can't take it so much longer
I make my way, still I feel so much stronger
I always knew that the time to celebrate
Was coming close, moving closer
I stand still, now it's down to fate
And still I wait
Still I wait
I stand still, my lungs fill, I try, but I can't cry
Too late, this is the moment
Fears pass as I run fast
Though I can't explain all the things I'm asked
So near, I need you closer
I'm now on the home straight, wind in my heels, shaping my fate
Too late, I'm getting nearer
Lights flash as I zoom past
I may have won the race but the thrill won't last
My aim is to get much better, that's why I wait
And all my friends are cheering, tonight we'll celebrate
Nothing's left to fear now, there's only jubilation
Put your hand in my hand and make me understand
There is no promised land, only what is deep inside
Now tonight the world is smiling, it may only last a while
That's all down to fate, but tonight we'll celebrate
We'll celebrate, we'll celebrate, we'll celebrate
That's why I wait...
