Manfred Mann`s Earth Band The Runner Lyrics

The Runner Lyrics

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

 

 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 feet see the sweat on the ground

 Watch your step, keep your cool

 Though you can't see what's in front of you

 

 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

 Pass on the flame

 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
