Marathon Man Lyrics

Official lyrics for Marathon Man, performed by Eric Carmen.

(eric carmen) Twenty years with my brain in a book Tryin' to find out who i am Endless nights and olympian dreams Of a race i never ran Someone's callin' my name It's the crowd in the stands Don't know how i became What i suddenly am Marathon man, keep a-runnin' Marathon man, keep a-runnin' I've been searchin' so long But the answer is finally at hand I'm a marathon man Wind is gone and my head's in a haze But i must keep up the pace Got to think about strategy here If i hope to win the race Someone's callin' my name It's the crowd in the stands Concentrate on the pain Put my soul in command Marathon man, keep a-runnin' Marathon man, keep a-runnin' I've been searchin' so long But the answer is finally at hand I'm a marathon man Wasting my youth Chasing dreams, testing truth Taking turns being deceived And deceivin' Bound with a rope Made of heroes and hope Till i found nothin' left To believe in Marathon man, keep a-runnin' Marathon man, keep a-runnin' I've been searchin' so long But the answer is finally at hand I'm a marathon man
