Just before dawn in the cold light
We came out of the night
A great expectation from the man who ran the show
Will it rain, will it snow, will it shine? We don't know
Are there clouds up in the sky?We sat in the sun, woah oh oh
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
And the bands played onSee the people, feel the power
There was sixty thousand there
Just like thunder the crowds began to roar
Where you there, did ya know, did ya see all the show?
There was magic in the airWe sat in the sun woah oh oh
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
And the bands played onSee the rainbow shining brightly
Shooting rockets to the sky
Making music and it rolled on through the night
You could hear on the air rock 'n' roll everywhere
We were strangers in the nightWe sat in the sun woah oh oh
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
