Lyrics

It's all up to you now
find yourself in the moment
go directly to the voodoo
now the channel is open
lose your head
lose control
you come on delicate and fine
like a diamond in the mind

oh who o
yeaaaa

when you move into the light
you're the greatest thing alive

oh whoa o

and you sway in the moon
the way you did when you were younger
when we told everybody
all you need is now

stay with the music let it
play a little longer
you don't need anybody
all you need is now

everybody's gunning
for the v.i.p. section
but your better up and running
in another direction
with your bones in the thrall
throw a shadow on the vine
bat your lashes let it shine

whoa o
yeaaaa

every moment that arrives
you're the greatest thing alive

oh whoa o

and you sway in the moon
the way you did when you were younger
and we told eveybody
all you need is now

stay with the music let it
play a little longer
we don't need anybody
all you need is now

all you need all you need is now

all you need all you need is now

all you need all you need is now

and we will sway in the moon
the way we did when we were younger
(when we were younger)
when we told everbody
all you need is now

stay with the music let it
play a little longer
(a little longer)
we don't need anybody
all you need is now
