Who Am I

The buildings reach up to the sky.

The traffic thunders on the busy street.

The pavement slips beneath my feet.

I walk alone and wonder

who am I?



I close my eyes and I can fly.

And I escape from all this worldly strife,

restricted by routine of life,

but still I can't discover

who am I.



I long to wake up in the morning

and find everything has changed,

and all the people that I meet don't wear a frown.

But every day is just the same.

I'm chasing rainbows in the rain.

All the dreams that I believe in let me down.



Maybe I'm reaching far too high,

for I have something else entirely free,

the love of someone close to me,

unfettered by the world that hurries by.

Um, to question such good fortune,

who am I?
