Oh! (Hey, hey, hey, hey!)

Tell me, what does it take to let go
How many years do you wait?
Oh, and now, all of the clouds are combining
That flickering light's just a flame

Oh, but yeah
I'm so tired
I've been away for so many years
But I guess I'll just wait a bit longer
I'll stay 'til they open the gates

Oh, but yeah
All my life, I've stayed here waiting
Every new year always making
Feel as though there's nothing up there
But one day you came out of nowhere

1985 was a good year
The sky broke apart then you appeared
Out from the heavens, they called me a dreamer
I would be lying if I knew that you belonged here

Lifted off the ground
I took your hands and pulled you down
Because 1985 was a good year
I would be lying if I knew that you belonged here

Oh! (Hey, hey, hey, hey!)

Well, how many years has it been now?
How many days went to waste?
Now the rain and the thunder are clashing
The sun's got a smile 'cross the face

Oh, but yeah
I'm so tired
I fight so hard and come back beating
Beacon, burn through it brightly
The soul through a sliver of space

All my life, I've stayed here waiting
Every new year always making
Feel as though there's nothing up there
But one day you came out of nowhere

1985 was a good year
The sky broke apart then you appeared
Out from the heavens, they called me a dreamer
I would be lying if I knew that you belonged here

Lifted off the ground
I took your hands and pulled you down
Because 1985 was a good year
I would be lying if I knew that you belonged here

Lifted up
Lift us back to the sky and the world above
Lifted up
Lifted up

1985 was a good year
The sky broke apart then you appeared
Out from the heavens, they called me a dreamer

Lifted off the ground
I took your hands and pulled you down
Because 1985 was a good year
I would be lying if I knew that you belonged here
