I was never a child at all I was raised to stand as tall as father’s immemorial Born to be a portrait on the wall
I am the race car, they’re the timer I’m the firstborn, set for higher power than I care to be It is not for me
Blue blood, bound by fate Son of a steel magnate Golden chains are so hard to bear...
Railway tracks are my life story From Rome to London, I wield the glory of the gold and green It should not be for me
Blue blood, bound by fate Son of a steel magnate Golden chains are so hard to bear...
One day I’ll revise the story A door will close one final time Path will be mine only to the unknown One was born to rule a nation To rule with fists of gold and steel There will be no name or station unknown to the world
One night in Dublin at last On the shore I hold fast to the treasure that I carry along A painting that I worked on for so long
Blue blood, heart gone black Finally not turning back World of the old, it’s ending here
Today I’ll revise the story A door will close one final time This path will be mine only to the unknown One was born to rule a nation To rule with fists of gold and steel Today will be no name or station unknown to the world...
[Act II: Repentance]
On the docks against the nightfall I should take the step if I dare With the painting hidden away About to sail to Delaware My portrait, picture of my life Father’s face blended with mine Destiny, it always gets you in the end of the line...
This will never hang on a wall Down there in the ancestor’s hall On the final break of a day Atlantic washes me away My colors away
[Act III: To the New World]
Today I’ll revise the story A door will close one final time This path will be mine only to the unknown One was born to rule a nation To rule with fists of gold and steel There will be no name or station unknown to the world Today I’ll revise the story A door will close one final time This path will be mine only to the unknown One was born to rule a nation To rule with fists of gold and steel There will be no name or station unknown to the world, oh Unknown to the world...Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
