Looking down I watch the night  Running from the sun  Orphan stars and city lights  Fading one by one  Oh sweet memories  I call on you now  Two too many hearts been broke  Along this lonely road  Steel grey eyes can shine the lies  Until they look like gold  Cold city sidewalks can turn your heart to stone  The street won't defeat me  Cause I've got the will I'll survive  I don't mind runnin' alone  I believe that every soul  Has a song to sing  The spirit's locked in every man  Waiting for a wing  Oh so much is wasted  And oh so little used  The trick of the dreamer  Is keeping yourself from the blues  And I don't mind runnin'  Everyone's a hero  If you want to be  Everyone's a prisoner  Holding their own key  Every step I take  Every move I make  Always one step closer  I don't mind runnin' alone  Laughing children echo down  The concrete alleyways  Oh their voices  Calling, calling, calling yesterday  Oh sweet memories  Returning to me now  When young eyes saw clearly  Everyone's a hero  It you want to be  Everyone's a prisoner  Holding their own key  Every step I take  Every move I make  Always one step closer  I don't mind runnin' alone
