Open up your eyes and wake up
Got a lot of time to make up, girl
Time goes by in such a hurry
Why'd you sit around and worry so, don't you know
You've been living your life in a shell
Now's the time has come to break the spell
Everybody's got to shine sometime
It's just a matter of time you know
There's a whole new world for you to discover
Wake up, wake up
Life is just a book of pages
And you still got so many to fill in
Don't put down what's happenin' around you
Just because they told you it's a sin
How do you know until you try
Love is callin' so spread your wings and fly
-5
Got so many things to show you
-5
Groovy things that we can share together
-5 +
Baby, no no no don't be afraid of tomorrow
La la la la
La la la la

Coda :
Everybody's got to shine sometime
It's just a matter of time you know
There's a whole new world for you to discover
Wake up, wake up baby
