Leppard Def On Through The Night Lyrics

On Through The Night Lyrics

The wait is done, the battle's won 

So count the cost before you run 

'Cos on and on your time was power 

The clock on the wall ticks away the hours 

Come on down, you're flyin' high 

You'll never win if you never try 

Stop the hate and carry the load 

Come on, get this 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 and gettin' higher 

I'm flat on my face and you call me liar 

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 gonna fade again and again 



[Repeat Chorus]



Not anyhow 

All you want to hear 

Is the audience applause 

You can't get on stage 

For a country clause 

And the road ahead seems a little rough 

If you want to know my feelings 

I say that's tough, that's tough 

Your wheels ain't turnin', 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 waitin' for you 

They're waitin' for me 

And what seems like eternity 

It's all tradition, it'll get you yet 

In rock'n'roll there's no safety net 



[Repeat Chorus]



On through the night 

Goin' on and on, on and on 

On through the night 

You can't stop me anyhow 

Oh no no anyhow
