Human Race - Tom Cochrane

I can see it on the road ahead

Running hard I’m here, but I could be there instead

Many houses with the lights on

Silhouettes behind the shades beside fires

I’m sure I saw you in one

I loved you but that was way back then

Now I’m alone outside

And I face the wind

The rain washes me thin

Knocked me down and I got back up

And I got myself back in the race again

Knock me down, and I’ll get back up

And I’ll get myself back in the race again

Race through the shadows, race against stone

The sunken city that I thought was my own

Might be in a brave new world, but it’s really not my home

Roll over fall in, «My god», I screamed

They might catch them, but they won’t catch me

I’m out here clean and I’m free… yes I’m free

Knocked me down, but I got back up

And I got myself back in the race again

Knock me down, and I’ll get back up

And I’ll get myself back in the race again
