I Am The Spirit Lyrics - Singles - Victor

(Alex Lifeson) 

I am the star-filled sky in winter 

I am the starry-eyed who stares 

I am the cold, grey rock of mountains 

I am-the sea, so calm yet fearsome 

I am-the one to seize the chance 

I am-the air so pure yet foul 

I am-the one who takes a stance 

All you have is all there is 

All there is, is what you make 

All you make is all there is 

All for your own sake 

I am the building, tall and handsome 

I am the builder, the one who cares 

I am the painting on the canvas 

I am the painter, the one who shares 

I am-the trees, so strong and silent 

I am-the earth, all life to give 

I am-the sun, both lover and killer 

I am-the child, through you I live 

I have a need for building on tomorrow 

I have a need to begin today 

I have no time for living some past sorrow 

I just want to get on my way 

I need to have a strength in my conviction 

I need to have the final say 

I need to make some sense in my selection 

I just want to get on my way 

You only have you 

I only have me 

You lonely with you 

Me lonely with me 

You can give it to me 

I will take it from you 

You'll always have it from me 

We'll be always 

I am the wind, both warm and freezing 

I am the truth, not always fair 

I am the clouds, static yet fleeting 

I am the heart, a burden to bear 

I am-the man for all of the seasons 

I am-the boy who never fears 

I am-the woman who knows all the reasons 

I am-the girl who sheds the tears
