Who Am I - Petula Clark

The buildings reach up to the sky

The traffic thunders on the busy street

The pavement slips beneath my feet

I walk alone and wonder

Who am I?

I close my eyes and I can fly

And I escape from all this worldly strife

Restricted by routine of life

But still I can’t discover

Who am I

I long to wake up in the morning

And find everything has changed

And all the people that I meet don’t wear a frown

But every day is just the same

I’m chasing rainbows in the rain

All the dreams that I believe in let me down

Maybe I’m reaching far too high

For I have something else entirely free

The love of someone close to me

Unfettered by the world that hurries by

Um, to question such good fortune

Who am I?

I long to wake up in the morning

And find everything has changed

And all the people that I meet don’t wear a frown

But every day is just the same

I’m chasing rainbows in the rain

All the dreams that I believe in let me down

Maybe I’m reaching far too high

For I have something else entirely free

The love of someone close to me

Unfettered by the world that hurries by

To question such good fortune

Who am I?
