You might believe, and still you feel
|
the chase has just begun;
|
That you must reach that horizon before
|
the setting of the sun.
|
You chase the light in front of you,
|
nightfall close behind;
|
If you stop to catch your breath,
|
You know what you will find.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
Don`t slow down don`t touch the ground,
|
You know what you will find;
|
That old grey man in tattered clothes
|
following behind.
|
|
|
No time to stop, don`t go to sleep,
|
prepare to pay the cost.
|
The hours and minutes are passing by,
|
another day is lost.
|
Impatience is a virtue,
|
catch me if you can.
|
The seconds have been ticking by
|
since your life began.
