[Verse 1]

As a child, you would wait and watch from far away

But you always knew that you'd be the one

That work while they all play

In youth, you'd lay awake at night and scheme

Of all the things that you would change

But it was just a dream

[Chorus]

Here we are, don't turn away now (Don't turn away)

We are the warriors that built this town (This town)

Here we are, don't turn away now (Don't turn away)

We are the warriors that built this town (This town)

From dust

[Verse 2]

The time will come, when you'll have to rise

Above the rest and prove yourself

Your spirit never dies

Farewell, I've gone to take my throne above

But don't weep for me, 'cause this will be

The labor of my love

[Chorus]

Here we are, don't turn away now (Don't turn away)

We are the warriors that built this town (This town)

Here we are, don't turn away now (Don't turn away)

We are the warriors that built this town (This town)

From dust

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Here we are, don't turn away now (Don't turn away)

We are the warriors that built this town (This town)

Here we are, don't turn away now (Don't turn away)

We are the warriors that built this town (This town)

From dust
