Cool your engines in standby
Cause you've got just one chance in your life
At the end of the night
As you're waiting on the starting line
Cool your engines in standby
Cause you've got just one chance tonight
To do what is right
As we're waiting on the starting line
And if you think that you might
Give up this time with no try
And if the waiting tonight
Is the longest part of your life
I wanna tell you alright
The patience is so hard to try
Cool your engines in standby
As we're waiting on the starting line
Cool your engines
Now everyone's going home tonight
The night is fading with the gaining light
It's time to do or die
I won't deny this
You make a choice and you hope it's right
It's such a struggle to be strong tonight
We should just hold on
And do this right
And don't you ask me
Why it's gotta be this way
If you love me this much
I shouldn't have to say
Cool your engines in standby
Cause you've got just one chance in your life
At the end of the night
As you're waiting on the starting line
Cool your engines in standby
Cause you've got just one chance tonight
To do what is right
As we're waiting on the starting line
Cool your engines in standby
Cause you've got just one chance in your life
At the end of the night
As you're waiting on the starting line
Cool your engines in standby
Cause you've got just one chance tonight
To do what is right
As we're waiting on the starting line
And if you think that you might
Give up this time with no try
