John Parr – St. Elmos Fire (Man In Motion)

Verse 1:
                                         
Growin' up, you don't see the writing on the wall
                                           
Passin' 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 on, only you can do what must be done *
You know in some way you're a lot like me
You're just a prisoner and you're tryin' to break free

Chorus:
                                    
I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin' 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 my future's lyin', St. Elmo's Fire

Verse 2:
Burning up, don't know just how far that I can go (just how far I go)
Soon be home, only just a few miles down the road
I can make it, I know I can
You broke the boy in me, but you won't break the man

Chorus:
I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin’ 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 my future's lyin', St. Elmo's Fire
I can climb the highest mountain, cross the wildest sea
I can feel St. Elmo's Fire burnin' in me, burnin' in me
                                                         
(Play verse (not a 100% sure here) during “solo”)

              
Just once in his life a man has his time, and my time is now,
          
I'm coming alive

Chorus: x2
I can hear the music playin', I can see the banners fly
Feel like you're back again, and hope ridin' high
Gonna be your man in motion, all I need is a pair of wheels
Take me where my future's lyin', St. Elmo's Fire

(On second time round)
I can climb the highest mountain, cross the wildest sea
I can feel St. Elmo's Fire burnin' in me

Burnin', burnin' in me, I can feel it burnin'
Oooh, burnin' inside of me...
