You might believe and still you feel
The chase has just begun
That you must reach that horizon before
The setting of the sun

You chase the light in front of you,
Nightfall close behind;
If you stop to catch your breath,
You know what you will find

Don't slow down don't touch the ground
You know what you will find
That old grey man in tattered clothes
Following behind
That old grey man in tattered clothes
Following behind

No time to stop, don't go to sleep
Prepare to pay the cost
The hours and minutes are passing by
Another day is lost

Impatience is a virtue
Catch me if you can
The seconds have been ticking by
Since your life began

Don't slow down don't touch the ground
You know what you will find
That old grey man in tattered clothes
Following behind
That old grey man in tattered clothes
Following behind

Don't slow down don't touch the ground
You know what you will find
That old grey man in tattered clothes
Following behind
That old grey man in tattered clothes
Following behind
That old grey man in tattered clothes
Following behind
