Half way to heaven, in an angel's eyes
Riding high and feeling easy
With the guitars playing
And her body swaying
I'm gonna breakaway

	Ah ha, don't stop, don't stop the music
	Rave on, into the light
	Don't stop, don't stop the music
	Rave on, all night ...

Drums keep driving
Lord the band plays on
Don't it almost take your breath away
And the midnight lovers
One by one discover
Ah turn it up, turn it up 

	Don't stop, don't stop the music
	Rave on, into the light
	Don't stop, don't stop the music
	Rave on, all night ...

Oh baby let it take you, let it shake you
This could be our night
And tonight there'll be no giving in
Baby this is the one that we win ...

	Don't stop, don't stop the music
	Rave on, into the light
	Don't stop, don't stop the music
	Rave on, all night ...

	Don't stop, don't stop the music
	Rave on, into the light
	Don't stop, don't stop the music
	Rave on, all night ...

	Rave on




2. DONT STOP THE MUSIC (Michael Stanley)
I remember writing this after seeing the movie The Buddy Holly Story. Hats off to Gary and Tommy on this one.
