The walls are up, curtains drawn,
The stars are sleeping, the sun is gone.
I'm hoping that it's just a bad dream
A passing phase, that'll soon be gone
And even as the moon fades away,
I'm waiting for the light of dawn
I've gotta wake up, wake up! Get up and dance.
Jive, Be alive while I’ve got the chance
I've gotta wake up, wake up! Rise and shine
If there’s gonna be light, it’s gonna be mine!
The years are stacking up, on top of one another,
Bright and happy colors are slowly getting darker.
Before it’s too dark, before I get too deep
Gotta get some light into my heart, get lighter on my feet.
I've gotta wake up, wake up! Get up and dance.
Jive, Be alive while I’ve got the chance
I've gotta wake up, wake up! Rise and shine
If there’s gonna be light, it’s gonna be mine!
Shred all the curtains, get up dance
Tear down the walls, while I’ve got the chance.
There's a light in my heart, I've gotta let it shine
If there’s gonna be light, yeah it’s gonna be mine!
