On Through the Night Lyrics

The wait is done, the battle′s won
So count the cost before you run
It's on and on with timeless powers
The clock on the wall ticks away the hours
Come on down, you′re flying high
You'll never win if you never try
Stop the hate and carry the load
Come on, get the show on the road

On through the night
You can't stop me now
On through the night
You won′t stop me anyhow

The stakes are high, I′m getting high
I'm flat on my face and you call me loud
I′m watching you, you're watching me
You′re watching every move that I can see
My reputation's still at stake
I play it safe for safety′s sake
Your ego and your promises
Are done in vain again and again

On through the night
You won't stop me now
On through the night
You won't stop me anyhow
Not anyhow

All you wanna hear is the audience applause
You can′t get off stage ′fore the contract clause
And the road ahead seems a little rough
If you wanna know my feelings, I'd say they′re stuffed
They're stuffed

Your wheels ain′t turning, you're out of gas
You pay by check, but they take cash
Two roads ahead, but which to take
And you can′t see, it's your mistake
They're waiting for you, they′re waiting for me
In what seems like eternity
It′s all tradition to get you there
In rock and roll, there's no safety net

On through the night
Can′t stop me now
On through the night
Can't stop me anyhow
On through the night
Going on and on, on and on
On through the night
Can′t stop me anyhow
No, no, not anyhow
