[Verse 1]
Take my fate in your hands
We've got a lot that hasn’t even began
Something is calling us, we’re breaking free
I’m curious, I need to see
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Like a flash before our eyes
We're already into the night
And if it feels like we’re dreaming
Believe it, believe it
[Chorus]
We don't have to wait 'til the morning
The sun will never go down
And we won't be this way forever
We've got to take it now
Just stay awake, stay awake
You can follow us to paradise
Just stay awake, stay awake
[Verse 2]
When we dance side-by-side
While our reflections make our bodies collide
So full of energy, nothing to hide
No need to sleep, we come alive
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And if we’re going to take this ride
We can go wherever we like
And if it feels like dreaming
Believe it, believe it
[Chorus]
We don't have to wait 'til the morning
The sun will never go down
And we won't be this way forever
We've got to take it now
Just stay awake, stay awake
You can follow us to paradise
Just stay awake, stay awake
[Bridge]
(Believe it)
[Verse 1 repeated]
Take my fate in your hands
We've got a lot that hasn’t even began
Something is calling us, we’re breaking free
I’m curious, I need to see
[Interlude]
We're going on a journey
It was over like a flash before our eyes
We're going on a journey
It was over like a flash before our eyes
We're already into the night
[Chorus]
We don't have to wait 'til the morning
The sun will never go down
And we won't be this way forever
We've got to take it now
Just stay awake, stay awake
You can follow us to paradise
Just stay awake, stay awake
Take my fate in your hands
We've got a lot that hasn’t even began
Something is calling us, we’re breaking free
I’m curious, I need to see
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Like a flash before our eyes
We're already into the night
And if it feels like we’re dreaming
Believe it, believe it
[Chorus]
We don't have to wait 'til the morning
The sun will never go down
And we won't be this way forever
We've got to take it now
Just stay awake, stay awake
You can follow us to paradise
Just stay awake, stay awake
[Verse 2]
When we dance side-by-side
While our reflections make our bodies collide
So full of energy, nothing to hide
No need to sleep, we come alive
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And if we’re going to take this ride
We can go wherever we like
And if it feels like dreaming
Believe it, believe it
[Chorus]
We don't have to wait 'til the morning
The sun will never go down
And we won't be this way forever
We've got to take it now
Just stay awake, stay awake
You can follow us to paradise
Just stay awake, stay awake

Just stay awake, stay awake
