First Man to the Grave Songtext

von Morten Harket

Night after night
Day after day
Step by step
We came to this race

And it's the first man to the grave

Watch this busy street
A million running feet
Running in their lives
In waves and in heaps

And it's the first man to the grave

My love
Come stay with me tonight
It really matters who we are

Hey my busy friend
It doesn't matter who will win
Running out of faith
And as long as we're all in

And it's the first man to the grave

Words can take us many places
But tonight we are going far

And we who've got so many faces
We've only got one heart

The first man to the grave

My love
Come stay with me tonight
It truly matters who we are

And see if we can keep the silence
You and I are gonna see the stars

And we who've got so many faces
We've only got one
