Green Day › Lyrics › Waiting

I've been waiting a long time
For this moment to come
I'm destined for anything at all

Downtown lights will be shining
On me like any diamond
Ring out under the midnight hour

Well no one can touch me now well
And I can't turn my back
It's too late, ready or not at all

Well I'm so much closer than
I have ever known, wake up

Dawning of a new era
Calling don't let it catch you falling
Ready or not at all

It's so close enough to taste it
Almost I can embrace this
Feeling on the tip of my tongue

Well I'm so much closer than
I have ever known, wake up

Better thank your lucky stars
Say, hey, hey

Well I'm so much closer than
I have ever known, wake up

Better thank your lucky stars
Say, hey, hey

I've been waiting a life time
For this moment to come
I'm destined for anything at all

Dumbstruck, color me stupid
Good luck, you're gonna need it
Where I'm going if I get there at all

Wake up
Better thank your lucky stars
