The Runner

Through the night, through the dawn

Behind you another runner is born

Don t look back, you ve been there

See the mist as your breath hits the air



And it s underneath the moonlight, passing some

Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum



Through the night, through the dawn

Behind you another runner is born

Don t look back, you ve been there

Feel the mist as your breath hits the air



And it s underneath the moonlight, passing some

Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum



And you will run your time,

a shooting star across the sky

And you will surely cross the line

(to pass on the flame)


Sun come up, sun go down

Hear the beat, see the sweat on the ground

Watch your step, keep your cool

Though you can t see what s in front of you


Through the night, through the dawn

Behind you another runner is born

Don t look back, you ve been there

See the mist as your breath hits the air



And it s underneath the moonlight, passing some

Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum



And you will run your time,

a shooting star across the sky

And you will surely cross the line




And it s underneath the moonlight, passing some

Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum



And you will run your time,

a shooting star across the sky

And you will surely cross the line
