Rush - Cinderella Man Lyrics

Rush - Cinderella Man Video

A modest man from Mandrake
Travelled rich to the city
He had a need to discover
A use for his newly found wealth
 
Because he was human
Because he had goodness
Because he was moral
They called him insane
 
Delusions of grandeur
Visions of splendour
A manic depressive
He walks in the rain
 
Eyes wide open
Heart undefended
Innocence untarnished
 
Cinderella Man, doing what you can
They can't understand what it means
Cinderella Man, hang on to your plans
Try as they might they cannot steal your dreams, whoa
 
In the betrayal of his love he awakened
To face a world of cold reality
And a look in the eyes of the hungry
Awakened him to what he could do
 
He held up his riches to challenge the hungry
Purposeful motion for one so insane
They tried to fight him, just couldn't beat him
This manic depressive who walks in the rain
 
Cinderella Man, doing what you can
They can't understand what it means
Cinderella Man, hang on to your plans
Try as they might they cannot steal your dreams
