All my life I tried to do things my way
Didn't matter if it's wrong or night
Chasing dreams we were racing toward the light
Runnin' strong on the open high way
Drop the top on a friday night
The radio plays the sound track to my life
We were young
So afraid of what we might become
Tryin' to find where it is that we belong
Comin' up ... livin' life my way
Up ... workin' each day
Step by step reachin' for a dream
It hurts so bad it'll make you scream
Comin' up
Lonely nights seem to take forever
Another city like the one befor
It's crazy livin' but we just keep wanting more
Everyday brings a new horizon
Another mountain that we have to climb
On the stage we can leave it all behind
Here we are
Caught up in the star maker machine
On the run tryin' hard to live our dream
Comin' up ... livin' life my way
Up ... workin' each day
Step by step reachin' for a dream
It hurts so bad it'll make you scream
Comin' up
Comin' up ... gonna make it all
pay off in every way
If you give in then your outta luck
Just don't look back and you'll find
Yourself comin' up
We were young
So afraid of what we might become
Tryin' to find where it is that we belong
Comin' up ... livin' life my way
Up ... workin' each day
Step by step reachin' for a dream
It hurts so bad it'll make you scream
Comin' up
Comin' up ... gonna make it all
pay off in every way
If you give in then your outta luck
Just don't look back and you'll find
Yourself comin' up
Comin' up
