I was half in mind,
I was half in need
And as the rain
came down
I dropped to my knees
and I prayed
I said, "Oh heavenly
thing, please cleanse
my soul
I've seen all on offer
and I'm not impressed
at all"
I was halfway home,
I was half insane
And every shop window
I looked in just looked
the same
I said, "Now send
me a sign to save my life
'Cause at this moment
in time there is
nothing certain in
These days of mine"
You see it's a frightening
thing when it dawns
upon you
That I know as much
as the day I was born
And though I wasn't
asked, I might as
well stay
And promise myself
each and every day
That when you're
knocked on your back
and your life's a flop
And when you're down
on the bottom there's
nothing else
But to shout to the top
Well we're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
You see it's a frightening
thing when it dawns
upon you
That I know as much
as the day I was born
And though I wasn't
asked, I might as
well stay
And promise myself
each and every day
We're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
So when you're knocked
on your back and
your life's a flop
And when you're down
on the bottom there's
nothing else
But to shout to the top
Well, we're
gonna shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
And when you're
knocked on your back
and your life's a flop
And when you're
down on the bottom
there's nothing else
But to shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
We're gonna
shout to the top
