I see a strange man Running silently He never looks behind him He has no time to see He makes no sound, he has no voice The ground he doesn't feel But he's always on the run And I wonder if he's real Run on, run on, shadow of time Run on, run on, shadow of time His first name is today His last name is tomorrow
He knows no pain, he knows no joy He doesn't think of sorrow Fast and small, he's slow and tall He never stops to rest But I know where he's goin' 'Cause I know him the best Run on, run on, shadow of time Run on, run on, shadow of time Run on, run on, shadow of time Run on, run on, shadow of time
