I was born too soon, eager to enter the world I grew up too fast, I forgot to be a child This is a race against time I have to win Don't stand in my way tonight Whatever the price to pay I am the runaway, runaway I tried to run away but forgot I had no wings I tried to reach Atlantis but forgot I had to breath I tried to touch the fire but I got my fingers burned I tried to win the race against time But forgot the one I loved I was thirsty for freedom, thirsty for love and passion I ran away trying to find the answers to ridles torturing my mind Appearances and attractive colours Don't try to deceive my eyes Now I need to cut off the strings That are tying my down! I tried to run away but forgot I had no wings I tried to reach Atlantis but forgot I had to breath I tried to touch the fire but I got my fingers burned I tried to win the race against time But forgot the one I loved This is your way, this is your life This is your voice, this is your choice Haven't you heard the deadly siresn call Haven't you heard the warning sings at all O Mother please forgive me I can still hear my fathere, unable to see the light in my eyes O Mother please forgive me How could I be blind to your own tears This is my choice my fight my struggle for life I will hold on against all the winds Whatever the price to pay I am the runaway, runaway I tried to run away but forgot I had no wings I tried to reach Atlantis but forgot I had to breath I tried to touch the fire but I got my fingers burned I tried to win the race against time But forgot the one I loved
