Hey, look at me and you see that I’m into you
Time to believe and achieve, I’ll stand by you
As from this moment on, you and I can reach the stars
All I need is one more chance
This is the night, this is the night
I will be the star, lead me to your heart
This is my life, the simple life
That I’ve been waiting for, I’ll be back for more
Singing eh eh eh eh eh, yeah eh eh eh eh
Yeah eh eh eh eh, yeah eh eh eh
This is the night, this is the night
I’ll be flying high, this is the night
Hey, I believe you and me, we are meant to be
I can’t set you free, can’t you see this is killing me
As from this moment on, you and I can reach the stars
All we need is one more chance
This is the night, this is the night
I will be the star, lead me to your heart
This is my life, the simple life
That I’ve been waiting for, I’ll be back for more
Singing eh eh eh eh eh, yeah eh eh eh eh
Yeah eh eh eh eh, yeah eh eh eh
This is the night, this is the night
I’ll be flying high, this is the night
This is the night, this is the night
This is my life, the simple life
That I’ve been waiting for, I’ll be back for more
This is the night, this is the night
That I’ve been waiting for, join us from the floor
Singing eh eh eh eh eh, yeah eh eh eh eh
Yeah eh eh eh eh, yeah eh eh eh
This is the night, this is the night
I’ll be flying high, this is the night
