Lyrics

I?M ALMOST THERE

(Verse)
WHEN YOU?VE WORKED AND WAITED FOR SOMETHING.
WHEN YOU?VE DREAMED AND PLOTTED AND TRIED
AND SUDDENLY THAT LONG HELD AMBITION
STARTS REACHING FRUITION.
YOUR HEART BEAT GOES DOUBLE.
YOUR BLOOD STARTS TO BUBBLE.
IT?S NOT SOMETHING EASY TO HIDE

(Chorus)
I?M ON THE BRINK OF SOMETHING WONDERFUJL.
MY SKY IS PINK WITH THE ROCKET?S RED GLARE.
MY EYES ARE BLINKING AT THE SPECTACLE.
I?M ALMOST THERE. I?M ALMOST THERE.

I?VE REACHED THE LAND WHERE MAKE BELIEVE IS REAL.
A BRASSY BAND IS BEGINNING TO BLARE.
AT MY COMMAND THE BELLS WILL START TO PEAL.
I?M ALMOST THERE.
I?M ALMOST THERE ON THE INSIDE LOOKING OUT.
HOW IT MAKES ME WANT TO SHOUT.
WHAT WAS ONCE A POSSIBILITY HAS COME TO BE.
LOOK AT ME. LOOK AT ME.

I?M ON THE THRESHOLD OF MY WILDEST DREAMS
AND THERE?S A FRESH WINY TANG IN THE AIR.
I?M ON THE BRINK OF SOMETHING GLORIOUS.
HOW CAN I HELP BUT BE VICTORIOUS?
FEELING DEVIL-MAY-CARE.
LIFE?S AS CHOCOLATE ECLAIR.
I?M ALMOST THERE........
I?M ALMOST THERE.

JUST BEFORE IT HAPPENS

JUST BEFORE IT HAPPENS
THAT'S THE TIME TO STOP AND THINK.
JUST BEFORE YOU FIND THE POT OF GOLD.
AT THE END OF EXPECTATION,
WHEN YOU'RE STANDING ON THE BRINK,
COMES A SWEET ANTICIPATION,
PRECIOUS MOMENTS YOU CAN HOLD.

JUST BEFORE IT HAPPENS,
BEFORE THE FINAL VICTORY,
AS DELICIOUS AND YOUR WISHES COMING TRUE,
IS THAT MAGIC IN BETWEEN TIME
THAT COMES JUST BEFORE IT HAPPENS,
JUST BEFORE IT HAPPENS TO YOU.
