[Verse 1]
We waited four years for this moment
And now it’s just begun
Flags up high, hearts beating louder
Under one hot sun
Shoes hit grass, sparks in the corner
Hands up, everyone
Every pass, every chance
Tonight we chase the run
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold your breath
Feel that wave
The whole world’s here
At the gate
One shot, one dream
One burning call
We came to rise
We came to ball
[Chorus]
We waited four years for this moment
Now it’s time to play World Cup
We waited four years for this moment
Lift it up, lift it up
So let’s celebrate, it’s time to play World Cup
(Play World Cup)
So let’s celebrate, it’s time to play World Cup
(Play World Cup)
[Verse 2]
First touch clean, then the crowd goes wild
From the top row down
Every name on every shirt
Wants that golden sound
Mud on the knees, pride in the face
No one backs down now
One more break, one more strike
Let the whole place shout
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold your breath
Feel that wave
The whole world’s here
At the gate
One shot, one dream
One burning call
We came to rise
We came to ball
[Chorus]
We waited four years for this moment
Now it’s time to play World Cup
We waited four years for this moment
Lift it up, lift it up
So let’s celebrate, it’s time to play World Cup
(Play World Cup)
So let’s celebrate, it’s time to play World Cup
(Play World Cup)
[Bridge]
From every shore
To every street
Same roaring song
Same rushing beat
One flag, one flame
One final shout
When the whistle blows
We let it out
[Final Chorus]
We waited four years for this moment
Now it’s time to play World Cup
We waited four years for this moment
Lift it up, lift it up
So let’s celebrate, it’s time to play World Cup
(Play World Cup)
So let’s celebrate, it’s time to play World Cup
(Play World Cup)
