Here's to the hundred thousand people who I've met
Here's to the 97,000 whose names that I forgot
Here's to the 750 I call my friends
And the one or two or three or four dozen there at the top
Here's to the sisters and the sho 'nuffs
The suits and all the grown ups
And little kiddies come out barefoot tonight to play
Most of all this one goes out to the one that I have yet to meet
And I can't wait for you to take my breath away
No I can't wait
For you to take it
Thought I was doing fine but I was faking
Thought I could make it on my own but I can't make it
No, I can't wait for you to take my breath away
Here's to the hundred million fishes in the sea
And all the birds up in the sky I long to be
Here's to the worms down underground
The trees grown all around
And all the roads we took just to get here to this town
Here's to the crossroad quick decisions
And the vistas and and the visions
And the whole business spread before us every day
Most of all this one goes out to the place that I have yet to be
And I can't wait for you to take my breath away
No I can't wait
For you to take it
Thought I was doing fine but I was faking
Thought I could make it on my own but I can't make it
No, I can't wait for you to take my breath away
Here's to the people who I've passed along this road
Here's to all the people passing on to the unknown
Here's to the ones who broke the law
All the saints and my grandpa
Here's to everyone who's ever walked alone
Here's to the goodness that you're choosing
The times you thought you'd lose it
Here's to people making people here to stay
Most of all this one goes out to everybody listening to this song
I can't wait for you to take my breath away
No I can't wait
For you to take it
Thought I was doing fine but I was faking
Thought I could make it on my own but I can't make it
No, I can't wait for you to take my breath away
I can't wait for you to take my breath away
