The buildings reach up to the sky 
The traffic thunders on the busy street 
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 
To question such good fortune, who am I?

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?
