|
Around the world he traveled |
|
To start the games that he dreamed of, dreamed of |
|
His biggest triumph lingers |
|
Will only slip through his fingers |
|
He wants to feel the crowd |
|
And be a winner |
|
Each time he takes the step |
|
His reason now for living |
|
Praying silently |
|
He's running there |
|
Running faster |
|
To hear the sheers |
|
The crowd moves closer |
|
He's getting near |
|
A smile displays his victory |
|
It's only for a moment, a moment |
|
Towards the sky in wonder |
|
His mind begins to wander |
|
The cheers are getting near |
|
His name he hears |
|
But he will never fall |
|
This is really living |
|
Praying silently |
|
He's getting near |
|
His time is here |
|
The crowd gets closer |
|
The end is near |
|
From childhood to manhood |
|
He didn't seem to care |
|
He had no time for people |
|
He had no time to share |
|
The biggest race of all |
|
He wants to feel the crowd |
|
And be a winner |
|
Each time he takes a step |
|
His reason is now for living |
|
Praying silently |
|
He's running here |
|
Running faster |
|
To hear the cheers |
|
The crowd moves closer |
|
He's getting near |
|
He's almost here |
|
Getting faster |
|
His time is here |
|
The crowds move closer |
|
The end is here |
