I Gotta Feeling
Cast of Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No matter how hard I try
You keep pushing me aside
And I can't break through
There's no talking to you

It's so sad that you're leaving
It takes time to believe it
But after all is said and done
You're gonna be the lonely one, oh

Do you believe in life after love? (Sing with me, yeah)
I can feel something inside me say
I really don't think you're strong enough, no (hey)

And I feel (and I feel) like I just got home
And I feel
(Don't think you're strong enough, no)
And I feel (and I feel) like I just got home
And I feel

Quicker than a ray of light
Quicker than a ray of light
Really don't think you're strong enough, no

Waterloo, I was defeated, you won the war

My, my
At Waterloo, Napoleon did surrender
Oh, yeah
And I have met my destiny in quite a similar way

The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself, yeah (whoa)
Waterloo, I was defeated and you won the war
(You won the war)
Waterloo, promise to love you forevermore

Ne partez pas sans moi
La joie d'être libre
Vous qui cherchez une autre vie
Vous qui volez vers l'an deux mille
Ne partez pas sans moi

I got a feeling
That tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good, good night

A feelin' (fill up my cup, mazel tov)
(Do you believe in life after love?)
Tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good night (I can feel something inside me say)
That tonight's gonna be a good, good night
(I really don't think you're strong enough, no)




I got a feeling (quicker than a ray of light)
That tonight's gonna be a good, good night (do you believe in life after love?)

Can we talk about the fact how the Russian guy didn't turn out to be the villain just a very supportive ally?

@tanyay3287

For the first time in the whole American history in the history of ever 😂

@lolerie

Well, just like it is Clinton that colluded. Fake news.

@marisaghr

Yeah I was actually disappointed..kind of obvious...but will Ferrell’s movies aren’t brain teasers...they’re usually crude and gross but funny OR endearing and sweet and funny..I think this might be the first one like that thought...

@lolerie

@@observerobserver2240 Igor Danchenko hates Putin... As well as Olga Galkina. So disinformation was either from Source 2 or Steele himself.

@youtubetake-over4805

i was just kinda upset with him bc he was trying to steal Sigrit from lars and i felt bad for him. lars and sigrit are perfect for each other

I do not care if a lot of people didn’t like this movie. The music was AMAZING. the cameos of past winners was AMAZING and I honestly loved the story line

@elizabethmorgans6151

I really loved this movie...it was so good

@louizakonth

What is the name of the movie please

@ladym.7594

everybody except the critics seems to have liked it...i guess in the coming years this movie will be like the mamma mia musicals -- not much critical acclaim but cult classics
