The Spirit of Man

I'm chasin' a shadow, I can't see a thing It's dipping and diving like a bird on the wing And every time I get near it just seems To slip away There's a fighter inside who will never give up We are what we are and it's never enough Write the words in the sand that this man Will come again You may run from the sea And the words disappear Oh, you may fall to your knees But the power is here to survive It's shinin' again It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again I remember the first day of man on the moon The whole world was watchin' a whole world in tune It was hard to believe he was the same As me an' you Oh, look back to the future and look down the years It wasn't all battles an' bad news an' tears We have brought to this place a desire To have a dream We may reach for the stars And fall from the sky Oh, in the darkest hour The spirit of man comes to life It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again (Aaa) And we work, aha For the good things that we can have Yea, we work, aha For the family and home Yea, we work, aha For the D-Mark and the Dollar Yea, we work, aha For the woman on the phone Yea we work, aha (So hard) For that moment of elation Yea we work, aha For a chance to get away And we work, aha Just to let imagination Come inside and take me away (Aaa) We may reach for the star And fall from the sky Ohh in the darkest hour The spirit of man comes to life It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) Zu bum bo Zu bum bo Zu bum bo It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again (The spirit of man) It's shinin' again (The spirit of man)
