David Osborne - St. Elmo's Fire lyrics

Growin' up you don't see the writing on the wall. Pa**in' by, movin' straight ahead you knew it all. But maybe sometime if you feel the pain, you'll find you're all alone; everything has changed. Play the game; you know you can't quit until it's won. Soldier of only you can do what must be done. You know, in some ways you're a lot like me. You're just a prisoner, and you're tryin' to break free. I can see a new horizon underneath the blazing sky. I'll be where the eagle's flying higher and higher. Gonna be your man in motion. All I need is a pair of wheels. Take me where the future's lying: St. Elmo's fire. Burning up; don't know just how far that I can go. Soon be home; only just a few miles down the road. And I can make it, I know I can. You broke the boy in me, but you won't break the man. I can see a new horizon underneath the blazing sky. I'll be where the eagle's flying higher and higher. Gonna be your man in motion. All I need is a pair of wheels. Take me where the future's lying: St. Elmo's fire. I can climb the highest mountain, cross the widest sea. I can feel St. Elmo's fire burning in me, burning in me. Just once in his life a man has his time. And my time is now; I'm comin' alive. I can see a new horizon underneath the blazing sky. I'll be where the eagle's flying higher and higher. Gonna be your man in motion. All I need is a pair of wheels. Take me where the future's lying: St. Elmo's fire. I can hear the music playin'; I can see the banners fly. Feel like a vet again. I hope I ain't high! Gonna be your man in motion; all I need is a pair of wheels.
