You're Gonna Last

(アルバム： Opus X - 1982)

You wake up quick one cold grey morning
Feel the sweat form on your face
And the sound of engines roaring
Like an earthquake shakes the place

And you reach out for balance
Stand up and look around
Grab a hold of your senses
Head out for higher ground
Strap down your seat belt
Take in one long look at the past

'Cause it's all over
All over
Yes, it's all over
But you're gonna last

Lift your head and look in wonder
At this strange new world you see
Smoke enshrouded rocks and rivers
Crimson moonlight on the sea

And you push away the darkness
That's clouded your eyes and mind
Search your brain for answers
That somehow you've got to find
A thousand ancient battles
Are your lessons in how to last

'Cause it's all over
All over
Yes, it's all over
But you're gonna last

And it's not the change of scenery
That's making your heart beat fast
It's the challenge from deep inside you
It's the test that you've got to pass
And you know that you shouldn't worry
This ain't the first time, it won't be the last

And it's all over
Yes, it's all over
All over
And you're gonna last
Yeah, you'll last
Gonna last
