Night after night

Day after day

Step by step

We came to this race

And it’s the first man to the grave

Watch this busy street

A million running feet

Running in their lives

In waves and in heaps

And it’s the first man to the grave

My love

Come stay with me tonight

It really matters who we are

Hey my busy friend

It doesn’t matter who will win

Running out of faith

And as long as we’re all in

And it’s the first man to the grave

Words can take us many places

But tonight we are going far

And we who’ve got so many faces

We’ve only got one heart

The first man to the grave

My love

Come stay with me tonight

It truly matters who we are

And see if we can keep the silence

You and I are gonna see the stars

And we who’ve got so many faces

We’ve only got one heart
