The Runner (Live In Vienna)
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
