  • Chris De Burgh The Spirit of Man Lyrics

           

    I'm chasing a shadow, i can't see a thing,
    It's dipping and diving like a bird on the wing,
    And every time i get near it just seems to slip away;

    There's a fighter inside who will never give up,
    We are what we are and it's never enough,
    Write the words in the sand that this man will come again;

    You may run from the sea, and the words disappear,
    Oh you may fall to your knees,
    But the power is here, to survive;

    It's shining again,
    It's shining again - the spirit of man,
    It's shining again - the spirit of man;

    Ah remember the first day of man on the moon,
    The whole world was watching, a whole world in tune,
    It was hard to believe he was the same as me and you;

    Oh look back to the future and look down the years,
    It wasn't all battles and bad news and tears,
    We have brought to this place a desire to have a dream;

    We may reach for the stars, and fall from the sky,
    Oh in the darkest hour the spirit of man comes to life;

    It's shining again - the spirit of man,
    It's shining again - the spirit of man,
    It's shining again - the spirit of man;

    And we work - aha - for the good things that we can have,
    Yea we work - aha - for the family and home,
    Yea we work - aha - for the d-mark and the dollar,
    Yea we work - aha - for the woman on the phone,
    Yea we work - aha - for that moment of elation,
    Yea we work - aha - for a chance to get away,
    And we work - aha - just to let imagination,
    Come inside and take me away;

    We may reach for the stars, and fall from the sky,
    Ooh in the darkest hour the spirit of man comes to life;

    It's shining again - the spirit of man,
    It's shining again - the spirit of man,
    It's shining again - the spirit of man.
