Runner Songtext
von Manfred Mann’s Earth Band

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
