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 and 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 And find everything has changed, And all the people that I meet don't wear a frown. But every day is just the same. I'm chasing rainbows in the rain. All the dreams that I believe 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, Unfettered by the world that hurries by. Um, to question such good fortune, Who am I? I long to wake up in the morning And find everything has changed, And all the people that I meet don't wear a frown. But every day is just the same, I'm chasing rainbows in the rain. All the dreams that I believe 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, Unfettered by the world that hurries by. To question such good fortune, Who am I?
