Here we are, here and now

here we are, here and now, for the first time
ready to take over, no longer the next in line
we've waited far too long for our chance to come
we haven't gained a thing if waiting is all we've done
we thought we thought when we were young
there were always better days to come
but now we're older, we have changed
why do we still feel the same

because tomorrow is always a day away
here we are, here and now, for the first time
ready to take over, no longer the next in line
there's so much in our hearts that longs for something more
with all that we can do what are we waiting for
if all we have is this moment in this day in our lives
how can we make the best of it if we don't even try

when life's been full of failure and nothing comes our way
what makes us think it will be different today
but this is our time and we're ready to begin
if we don't do something now
we may never have this chance again
we want something more
