lyrics

Through the empty streets
Reach the edge of town
Far as I can see
Blue and green and brown

Here today and on my way
On and on again
Never turning round

Run up all the hills
Down the other side
Cross the swaying fields
And out into the wild

World’s moved on while I’ve been waiting
Turned while I was hesitating
Keep on running on
Beating out the time

And high on the hill
The glory of the green
And my eyes want to tell
The wonders that I’ve seen
In the view from the top of the world

Road ahead that ever ends
Get around another bend, begin again
Horizon getting close all the time

Will I recognise my destination
Beat the time that I’ve been racing?
Climb the rock I climb
Down the mountainside

And back to the breeze
And face towards the sun
Through the cool of the trees
And the haze around the dawn
And I run on again and I run
