Sunrising Songtext

I'm a child in the guise of a man I'm a man in the hands of a child and I'm driving as hard as I can just trying to make up some miles I've been out on this road so long my edges are starting to curl but I'll sleep when the first flush of Dawn softens the rim of the world After all this time I'm still on the line with a case to prove and a public to move After all my turning this fire is still burning and I'm back on show with a mile to go with one more mile to go Her fire was a fire of rage Under her skin it spread It festered and blew for an age then burst from the coils of her head She cast up a tower of tears but beauty broke it back down I stared at the wreck for years then woke up one day and found After all this time I'm still on the line with a case to prove and a public to move After all my turning this fire is still burning and I'm back on show with a mile to go with one more mile to go... Step on the gas and kiss the wind over the pass and peel that skin away Follow the lover out and in some other Lover coming in to stay I never meant to go to sea I always meant the sea to come to me I'm a child in the guise of a man I'm a man in the hands of a child and my Lover is in the Hands that carry me over the miles My Lover is in the car My Lover is in the road My Lover is in the stars that melt as the Dawn explodes And my Lover is in the wind blowing down the line 'tween your heart and mine And my Lover is in the Voice that whispers clear in my guts and ear even when I do not hear
