So count the cost before you run
Cause on and on your time is power
The clock on the wall ticks away the hours
Come on down, you're flyin' high
You'll never win if you never try
Stop the hate and carry the load
Come on, get this show on the road
On through the night, you can't stop me now
On through the night, you won't stop me anyhow
The stakes are high and gettin' higher
I'm flat on my face and you can call me liar
I'm watching you, you're watching me
You're watching every move that I can see
My reputation's still at stake
I play it safe for safety's sake
Your ego and your promises are gonna fade again and again
On through the night, you can't stop me now
On through the night, you won't stop me anyhow, not anyhow
All you want to hear is the audience applause
You can't get on stage for a contract clause
And the road ahead seems a little rough
If you want to know my feelings I'd say that's rough
And that's tough
Your wheels ain't turnin', you're out of gas
You pay by check but they take cash
Two roads ahead but which to take
If you can't see it's your mistake
They're waitin' for you, they're waitin' for me
In what seems like eternity
It's all tradition, it's all you get
In rock 'n' roll there's no safety net
On through the night, you can't stop me now
On through the night, you won't stop me anyhow
On through the night, goin' on and on, on and on
On through the night, you won't stop me anyhow
No no not anyhow
The wait is done, the battle's won So count the cost before you run Cause on and on your time is power The clock on the wall ticks away the hours Come on down, you're flyin' high You'll never win if you never try Stop the hate and carry the load Come on, get this show on the road On through the night, you can't stop me now On through the night, you won't stop me anyhow The stakes are high and gettin' higher I'm flat on my face and you can call me liar I'm watching you, you're watching me You're watching every move that I can see My reputation's still at stake I play it safe for safety's sake Your ego and your promises are gonna fade again and again On through the night, you can't stop me now On through the night, you won't stop me anyhow, not anyhow All you want to hear is the audience applause You can't get on stage for a contract clause And the road ahead seems a little rough If you want to know my feelings I'd say that's rough And that's tough Your wheels ain't turnin', you're out of gas You pay by check but they take cash Two roads ahead but which to take If you can't see it's your mistake They're waitin' for you, they're waitin' for me In what seems like eternity It's all tradition, it's all you get In rock 'n' roll there's no safety net On through the night, you can't stop me now On through the night, you won't stop me anyhow On through the night, goin' on and on, on and on On through the night, you won't stop me anyhow No no not anyhow Explain Request ×
