When you take me there It’s alive, It’s alive All that I've got to be thankful for When I see it through your eyes Now I understand your lives You show me the city I see it through your eyes We drive through the city

Makes me feel like I'm a modern man In line for a number but you don't understand Like a modern man And the people behind me, they can't understand In my dream I was almost there But we're wasted And that's why we're still waiting So I wait my turn, I'm
