St. Elmo's Fire (Man In Motion)
John Parr
-------------------------------------------------------------

Growin' up, you don't see the writing on the wall.
Passin' by, movin' straight ahead, you knew it all.
But maybe sometime if you feel the pain
You'll find you're all alone, everything has changed.

Play the game, you know you can't quit until it's won.
Soldier on, only you can do what must be done.
You know in some way you're a lot like me -
You're just a prisoner and you're tryin' to break free.

I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin' sky.
I'll be where the eagle's flyin' higher and higher.
Gonna' be your man in motion, all I need's this pair of wheels.
Take me where my future's lyin', Saint Elmo's fire.
Ooooooo

Burning up, don't know just how far that I can go.
(Just how far I go)
Soon be home, only just a few miles down the road.
I can make it, I know I can.
You broke the boy in me, but you won't break the man.

I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin' sky.
I'll be where the eagle's flyin' higher and higher.
Gonna' be your man in motion, all I need's this pair of wheels.
Take me where the future's lyin', Saint Elmo's fire.
I can climb the highest mountain, cross the wildest sea.
I can feel Saint Elmo's fire burnin' in me.
Burnin' in me.

Just once in his life a man has his time.
And my time is now,
I'm coming alive.

I can hear the music playin', I can see the banners fly.
Feel like a man again, on hope flyin' high.
Gonna' be a man in motion, all I need's this pair of wheels.
Take me where the future's lyin', Saint Elmo's fire.

I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin' sky.
I'll be where the eagle's flying higher and higher.
Gonna' be your man in motion, all I need's this pair of wheels.
Take me where my future's lyin', Saint Elmo's fire.
I can climb the highest mountain, cross the wildest sea.
I can feel Saint Elmo's fire burnin' in me.

Burnin', burnin' in me.
I can feel it burnin'.
Oooooh, burnin' inside of me.
Burnin'.
