The buildings reach up to the sky
The traffic thunders on the busy street
The pavement slips beneath my feet
I walk alone and wonder
Who am I?
I close my eyes, then I can fly
And I escape from all this worldly strife
Restricted by routine of life
But still I can't discover
Who am I?
I long to wake up in the morning
Find that everything has changed
And all the people that I meet don't wear a frown
But every day it's just the same
I'm chasing rainbows in the rain
And all the dreams that I believed in let me down
Maybe I'm reaching far too high
For I have something else entirely free
The love of someone close to me
We don't mind the world that hurries by
To question such good fortune
Who am I?
