The night is full of torment
And lives are torn to shreds
You want your correspondent
With cameras infrared
I'm tied to my debenture
Addicted to the rush
The thrill of the adventure
They have come to crown a hero
They've been waiting for the sign
But I won't apply, I'm not the guy
I have crossed a thousand rivers
I have walked the streets of gold
I have been through Hell and Heaven
Where my soul was bought and sold
I have stormed the Himalayas
Blown the horn of Africa
But as long I live I long to see
I long to be to stay with you again
Stay with you again
Stay with you again
To stay with you again
The tragedy is magic
Constructed and destoyed
It's human, all too human
How I've searched to fill the void
They have come to crown a hero
They've been waiting for the sign
But I won't apply, I'm not the guy
I have crossed a thousand rivers
I have walked the streets of gold
I have been through Hell and Heaven
Where my soul was bought and sold
I have stormed the Himalayas
Blown the horn of Africa
But as long I live I long to see
I long to be to stay with you again
Stay with you again
Stay with you again
To stay with you again
I have crossed a thousand rivers
I have walked the streets of gold
I have been through Hell and Heaven
Where my soul was bought and sold
I have stormed the Himalayas
Blown the horn of Africa
But as long I live I long to see
I long to be to stay with you again
Stay with you again
Stay with you again
To stay with you again
