Going All The Way Is Just The Start (A Song In 6 Movements)

by Meat Loaf

Lyrics
Sometimes it's the night

And the way it seems to cry

And whisper terrifying secrets in your ear

Sometimes it's the day

And the sun has got no mercy

Lighting up and burning everything that's in its way

There are times I've gotta run

Times I've gotta hide
Things I've left undone

Things I've cast aside
So many things to try
So many things denied

If I ever tell you the truth
I'd swear you would leave me
I need the proof
That you would believe me
You think I fly like an angel without any tears

Higher and higher above the world and all its fears
Everybody's ready to fly

But the storms are never so very far

And you think my life is shining like a star

But the fears are never very far
And
We always seem so much braver than we ever are
We always dream we seem braver but we never are
Let's run away

Let's go so far

There are secrets I never can tell

There are shadows of darkness and heaven

There are so many suburbs of hell

And their hours are 24 7

There are so many wounds you can't heal
So many nightmares are turning too real
So much of paradise lost and you added the cost
But there's nothing to be sorry for
Now we can feel so much more
Now we can be loving you
Nothing that we're scared to do
You see me smile and you swear that I could walk on air

You see me dancing the moonlight glancing at my hair

You see me as powerfully strong

But the nightmare's never so very far

And you think my life is shining like a star
But the tears are never very far
The fears are never very far
And
We always seem so much braver than we ever are

We always seem to be braver but we never are
Let's fly away

Let's go too far

Sometimes it's the flesh

And the way it seems to yearn
For all the magic of the single perfect touch

Sometimes it's the soul

And it's waiting for salvation
You'll know when you get it
There can never be too much

There are times I've gotta run
Times I've gotta hide
Things I've left undone
Things I've cast aside
So many things to try
So many things denied

If I ever tell you the truth
Would you ever believe me
Show me the proof
I'm so scared you would leave me
You think I fly like an angel without any care

Higher and higher as if I'm breathing sacred air

Everybody's ready to fly
But the storms are never so very far
And you think my life is shining like a star
But the fears are never very far
Or the nightmare's never very far
And
We always seem so much braver than we ever are

We always dream we seem braver but we never are
Let's run away

Let's go too far

Say a prayer for those who crawl

Say a prayer for those who run

Say a prayer so all and all

There's a better life to come

Say a prayer for those alone

Say a prayer for those apart

All the golden boys and girls
The crusaders of the heart

Say a prayer for all the lost

Say a prayer for the unborn

Say a prayer for all the young

It takes a fire to keep them warm
Say a prayer for those obsessed

Say a prayer for those enslaved
Say a prayer to beat the drums

From the cradle to the grave
Say a prayer for all the saints

Say a prayer for all the sins

Let the dancing never end

Let the future now begin
Say a prayer to all the Gods

Some are near and some are far

Say a prayer to all the Gods

To make us braver than we are
How far is too far baby

Come on and take me take me
We're crusaders of the heart

And going all the way is just the start
How far is too far

How far is too far baby

Take me deep inside the heart
And going all the way is just the start
How far is too far baby

Come on and take me take me
We're crusaders of the heart
And going all the way is just the start

Say a prayer

Say a prayer

Going all the way is just the start

Make us braver than we are
There's no such thing as too far

I've got to be where you are
Going all the way is just the start

The crusaders of the heart
How far is too far

I've got to be where you are
Going all the way is just the start

Make us braver than we are
How far is too far baby

Come on and take me take me

We're crusaders of the heart
And going all the way is just the start
How far is too far

How far is too far baby
Take me deep inside the heart
And going all the way is just the start
How far is too far baby

Come on and take me take me
We're crusaders of the heart
And going all the way is just the start
How far is too far

How far is too far baby

Take me deep inside the heart
And going all the way is just the start

Say a prayer to all the Gods

Some are near and some are far

Say a prayer to all the Gods

To make us braver than we are

Say a prayer to all the Gods

Some are near and some are far

Say a prayer to all the Gods

To make us braver than we are
