Taking It to the Top
Rising Beyond Limits: Taking It to the Top with Chris de Burgh
Lyrics
Every now and then I hear a song I used to know,
Hearing a familiar song occasionally, triggering memories.
Playing late at night on radio,
The remembered song is played late at night on the radio.
And I remember when the schooldays finally had to end,
Reflecting on the end of school days.
We were neatly wrapped and sent off in a row;
People leaving school in an orderly manner.
To be champions of the world,
Ambition to be world champions.
We can take on anyone,
Confidence to face any challenge.
Nothing's going to keep us from the door;
Determined to overcome obstacles.
We're taking it to the top, oh yes indeed we are,
Expressing determination to succeed.
We've come this far,
Highlighting progress made so far.
We're taking it to the top, oh yes indeed we will,
Reaffirming the commitment to reach the top.
We've got the skill,
Confident in possessing the necessary skills.
We're taking it to the top, hitting them from the heart,
Striving passionately, emphasizing sincerity.
Too late to stop, right from the start,
Too late to halt the determined effort from the beginning.
Up to the top, giving it all we've got,
Full dedication to the ascent, giving their best.
To the top of the hill right now!
Reaching the pinnacle of success.
Working on the window of a boardroom in the sky,
Working in a high-rise office with a view.
Business men in suits go flying by,
Observing businessmen in suits rushing past.
They're heading for the greatest day that they have ever seen,
Anticipating a remarkable day for these individuals.
Selling bridges to the Japanese;
Selling ambitious plans, possibly metaphorical bridges to the Japanese.
We are the champions of the world,
Claiming to be champions with the ability to face anyone.
We can take on anyone,
Confident in taking on challenges.
Nothing's going to keep us on the floor;
Nothing can hinder their progress.
We're taking it to the top, oh yes indeed we are,
Restating the determination to reach the top.
We've come this far,
Reflecting on the journey so far.
We're taking it to the top, oh yes indeed we will,
Commitment to achieving success with acquired skills.
We've got the skill,
Confidence in possessing the necessary expertise.
We're taking it to the top, hitting them from the heart,
Approaching the goal with passion and sincerity.
Too late to stop, right now!
Timing is critical; unstoppable at this point.
Taking it to the top, oh yes indeed we are,
Reiterating the commitment to reach the top.
We've come this far,
Emphasizing the distance covered in the journey.
We're taking it to the top, oh yes indeed we will,
Affirming the determination to succeed.
We've got the skill,
Confidence in possessing the requisite skills.
We're taking it to the top, hitting them from the heart,
Continuing to strive with passion and sincerity.
Too late to stop, once we have started,
Once initiated, the progress cannot be halted.
To the top, giving it all we've got,
Heading towards the summit, giving their all.
To the top of the hill right now, right now!
Emphasizing the current moment of reaching the top of the hill.
