Ragamuffin Man Lyrics

THE RUNNER

Manfred Mann's Earth Band

Through the night, through the dawn

Behind you another runner is born

Don't look back you've been there

Feel the mist as your breath hits the air

And it's underneath the moonlight 

Passing some

Still your heart beats in the moonlight

Like a drum

Through the night, through the dawn

Behind you another runner is born

Don't look back, you've been there

Feel the mist as your breath hits the air

And it's underneath the moonlight 

Passing some

Still your heart beats in the moonlight

Like a drum

And you will run your time

A shooting star across the sky 

And you will surely cross the line

To pass on the flame

Sun come up, sun go down 

Hear the feet see the sweat on the ground

Watch your step, keep your cool

Though you can't see what's in front of you

And it's underneath the moonlight 

Passing some

Still your heart beats in the moonlight

Like a drum

And you will run your time

A shooting star across the sky 

And you will surely cross the line

To pass on the flame

Pass on the flame

Through the night, through the dawn

Behind you another runner is born

Don't look back, you've been there

See the mist as your breath hits the air

And it's underneath the moonlight 

Passing some

Still your heart beats in the moonlight

Like a drum
