Sonata Arctica - Half A Marathon Man lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

And 89 year old man learned how to run

And as he passed me by, he said "come on, son!"

I really thought my bones weighted a ton

As I dragged them up and down the block

Now a couple of weeks have passed

Gone are the makings of a lazy man

When I saw the usher of change

Her flaming hair in slow-mo

Gliding past my window

I had to trace her down

"You look like a really nice guy, but can you keep up with me?"

Away she ran

(Chorus)

I'm doing everything I can to be half of a marathon man

How many things can life conceal deep in the mist everything is unreal?

If you believe in me, I can become your own half a marathon man

I am half of a a marathon man, yeah-yeah!

(Verse)

Good morning, somebody kill me right now!

I've never felt this kind of a burning cold

I read it somewhere, running is like a drug

As for the second day, I can say it is not

It's bright white burning pain, bring it on, baby!

Ten miles and I fell hellbent

I'm gonna make sure this rainbow has an end

I seem to have hit an invisible wall

Trying to find out if this here endless tunnel is really a cave

(Chorus)

So here I run between the fields, I am half of a marathon man

Follow the river down from the hills, if I can do it, then anyone can

Now her eyes reflect my skies, you can hear love in the twenty one cries

Of half of a marathon man

(Interlude x4)

It's a beautiful day, it's a beautiful day,

It's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

(Chorus)

So here I run between the fields, I am half of a marathon man

Follow the river down from the hills, if I can do it, then anyone can

Now her eyes reflect my skies, you can hear love in the twenty one cries

Of half of a marathon man

(Interlude x4)

It's a beautiful day, it's a beautiful day,

It's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
