Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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?)
