Hey!
All these faces on the downtown street
There'll all lookin' for someplace to be, but I
Tell you what we're gonna be alright 'cause
We got a place in this worldtonight, yea
Some people try to run their future down
Never livin' in the here and now, but I
Can't say the same about you and I, 'cause
We got a place in this world tonight
Woah...
We gotta take the moment
Like we own it
Woah...
We're all in this together
So you better make it last
Some people always look in their rear view
Never knowin' every day is new
Brother, sister, don't you realize that
We got a place in this world tonight
Hey!
Hey!
Woah...
We gotta take the moment
Like we own it
Woah...
We're all in this together
So you better make it last
'Cause it's ashes to ashes and it's dust to dust, and
Before ya know it 'yea your time is up, but I
Tell you one thing we're doin' just ne, 'cause...
We got a place in this world tonight...Hey!
Yea...Hey!
We got a place in this world tonight...Hey!
Mmmm...Hey!
We got a place in this world tonight
