 (D. Foster/J. Parr)

 Growin' up

 You don't see the writin' 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

 

 CHORUS:

 

 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 is a pair of wheels

 Take me where my future's lyin'

 St. Elmo's Fire

 

 Oooh...

 

 Burnin' 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

 

 (CHORUS)

 

 I can climb the highest mountain

 Cross the wildest sea

 I can feel St. Elmo's Fire burnin' in me

 Burnin' in me

 

 Just once in his life

 A man has his time

 And my time is now

 And I'm comin' alive

 

 I can hear the music playin'

 I can see the banners fly

 Feel like you're back again

 And hope ridin' high

 Gonna be your man in motion

 All I need is a pair of wheels

 Take me where my future's lyin'

 St. Elmo's Fire

 

 (CHORUS)

 

 I can climb the highest mountain

 Cross the wildest sea

 I can feel St. Elmo's Fire burnin' in me

 

 Burnin'

 Burnin' in me

 I can feel it burnin'

 Oooh, burnin' inside of me
