Lyrics Giorgio Moroder - 1990 Soccer World Cup Anthem

TO BE NUMBER ONE (English Version)

This is what we've worked for all our lives
Reaching for the highest goal we can
We choose to give it all
When competition cals
Time records the victory in our hearts

To win or lose is not the only thing
It's all in how we play the fairest game
This is the chance we take
Reaching for the top
Time records the victory in our hearts

To be number one
Running like the wind
Playing hard - but always playing fair
(Oh year)

To be number one
Winning again and again
Reaching higher -
win through Italian sky

This is what we've wanted all our lives
Shining like a shooting star at night
We've got to give it all
When we hear the call
Time records the victory in our hearts

To be number one
Running like the wind
Playing haed - but always playing fair
(Oh year)

To be number one
Winning again and again
Reaching higher
win through Italian sky
