Lyrics:
In the dark, someone come with you and said
Are you ready to go? Are you ready, are you set?
And so they start again
Don't tell me, don't let my arms out
I am standing here now, now I'm ready too
Stronger than the rest, better than the best
She said "Here I am," she said "Here I am"
Strong as any man, the only woman
She said "Here I am," she said "Here I am"
Stronger than the rest, better than the best
She said "Here I am," she said "Here I am"
Walk away, we've had more than your say
We’re ready now, ready now
Let's go, let's ready here we go
Better than the best, stronger than the rest
She said "Here I am," she said "Here I am"
Gonna take you to the end of tomorrow
I will take you to the end of my world
I'm gonna fight for the right to believe in myself
I'm gonna fight for the right to release myself
Release myself and
Rainbow shirt ribbed in acid love
And our lives are ribbed in plastic love
Here I am, here I am
It's not just you, she loved me too
Here I am, here I am
It's not just you, she loved me too
Here I am, here I am
Gonna take you to the end of tomorrow
I will take you to the end of my world
I'm gonna fight for the right to believe in myself
I'm gonna fight for the right to release myself
Release myself and
(It went on and on)
{It went on} Stronger than the rest
Better than the best {And on} She said "Here I am"
{It went on} Was the strongest of the men
Was the only woman
She said "Here I am" (Here I am)
{And on} Walk away, you've had more than your say
{Our glory} Here I am
{It went on} Louder and louder it will build and fade
And soon your love will turn to hate
She said "Here I am"
(She said "Here I am")
{And on} Louder and louder it will build and fade
And soon your love will turn to hate
She said "Here I am"
(Here I am) Louder and louder it will build and fade
And soon your love will turn to hate
She said "Here I am"
She said "Here I am"
Louder and louder it will build and fade
And soon your love will turn to hate
She said "Here I am"
She said "Here I am"
Walk away, you've had more than your say
You've fallen down, and now we're tired
And we need some time to rest our head
Underqualified, undersatisfied, I lie
I'm underqualified, I'm undersatisfied, I lie
I'm underqualified, I'm undersatisfied, I lie
I'm gonna take you {It’s not just you}
{She loved me too} To the end of tomorrow
{I’m gonna qualify} I'm going to take you
{I’m gonna satisfy my love} To the end of my world
I will take you to the end of tomorrow
I will take you to the end of my world
