chasing a shadow,
I can't see a thing
It's dipping and diving
like a bird on the wing
And every time I get near
it just seems to slip away
There's a fighter inside
who will never give up
We are what we are
and it's never enough
Like the words in the sand
that this man will come again
You may run from the sea,
and the worlds disappear
You may fall to your knees,
but the power is here to survive
It shines again, it shines again
The spirit of man is shining in
The spirit of man is shining in
I remember the first day of my home
The whole world was watching,
the whole world in tune
It was hard to believe
he was the same as me and you
Oh, look back to the future
and look down the years
It wasn't all battles and bad news, it is
We have brought to this place
a desire to have a dream
We may reach for the stars
and fall from the sky
Oh, in the darkness now
The Spirit of God comes to light
It's shining again
The Spirit of God
It's shining again
The Spirit of God
It's shining again
The Spirit of God
It's shining again
Yeah, we work, uh -huh,
for the good things that we can
and, yeah, we work, uh -huh,
for the family and home.
Yeah, we work, uh -huh,
for the D -mark and the dollar.
Yeah, we work, uh -huh,
for the woman on the phone.
Yeah, we work, uh -huh,
for that moment of elation.
Yeah, we work, uh -huh,
for a chance to get away.
And we work, ah -ha,
just to let imagination
Come inside and take me
away
We don't reach for the stars
And fall from the sky
Oh, in the darkest hour
The Spirit of God comes to life
It shines again
The Spirit of God
It shines again
The Spirit of God
It shines again
The Spirit of God
It shines again
It's baby, I'm back
It shines again
It's baby, I'm back
It shines again
It's baby, I'm back
It shines again
The Spirit of God is shining
The Spirit of God is shining
