Who is this man That follows me This blue eyed boy Who wants to be This worthy cause Of human kind This pawn set up by time Like a bright light on the horizon Shining so bright, he'll get you flying He'll drive you away, he'll drive you insane But then he'll remove all of your pain Like a bright light on the horizon Shining so bright, he'll get you flying He'll get you flying, he'll get you flying He'll get you flying, flying, flying This open book Yet to be read This second look This leap ahead The hope I held inside With you, was kept alive Like a bright light on the horizon Shining so bright, he'll get you flying He'll drive you away, he'll drive you insane But then he'll remove all of your pain Like a bright light on the horizon Shining so bright, He'll get you flying He'll get you flying, He'll get you flying He'll get you flying, flying, flying We're here to stay We're here to stay We're here to stay We're here to stay We're here to stay We're here to stay We're here to stay We're here to stay Like a bright light on the horizon Shining so bright, he'll get you flying He'll get you flying, he'll get you flying He'll get you flying, flying, flying
