The call of the wild
Brings me to my window-sill
Eyes to the dawn
A tug on a heartstring
By suft unknown fingers
Leading me on
But there's only a street lamp
Standing guard to my soul in the morning air
A silent companion
Waiting like me for the dawn
Faint stirrings of life
Are heard 'cross the rooftops
Breaking the spell
Echoes of footsteps
That call down the pavement
With stories to tell
And chimney-smoke towers reaching out on the grey
Of the morning light
Passionate fingers, outstretched in welcome
For the dawn
The sound of the city
Thunders around me
Drags me along
The babble of voices
The roar of the traffic
Drown me in their song
I'm only a heartbeat keeping time with a pace
Set by marching feet
A pulse that beats stronger
as the new day unfolds from the dawn
Can you feel it pumping?
Can you feel it flowing round and round?
Can you feel it through your fingertips?
To your head it flows up through the ground
Does it scare you?
When you feel the scenery closing in?
Adrift on the street
I merge with confusion
And I feel complete
Swelling with the human tide
Heart and mind electrified
I'm swaying like the ground beneath my feet
We can stand and watch with pride
Or maybe scorn and cricise
How people seem like rats at running pace
But you and I are runners too
There's nothing more that we can do
But join the rats down at the starting gate
But you and I are runners too
There's nothing more that we can do but run
Run, run, run, run
The final strait lies round the bend,
But I don't want this race to end!
