Growin' up, you don't see the writing on the wall, yah, yah!
Passin' by, movin' straight ahead, you knew it all, come on!
You know in some ways you're a lot like me
You're just a prisoner and you're tryin' to break free

I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin' sky
I'll be where the eagle's flyin' higher and higher
Gonna be your man in motion, all I need is a pair of wheels
Take me where my future's lyin', St. Elmo's fire, oh, oh, oh, yes!

For once in his life a man has his time
And my time is now, (now, now) and I'm coming alive, yah!

I can hear the music playin', I can see the banners fly
Feel like a man again, I'll hold my head high
Gonna be your man in motion, all I need is a pair of wheels
Take me where my future's lyin', St. Elmo's fire

I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin' sky
I'll be where the eagle's flyin' higher and higher
Gonna be your man in motion, all I need is a pair of wheels
I can feel St. Elmo's fire burnin' in me
Burnin' in me, burnin' in me, yes!
