lyrics

everyone is watching atalanta run
no one can catch her, not even one
but they try

atalanta's running with wings on her feet
when atalanta's running, no one can beat her
she flies

king iasos left her to die -
his infant daughter on the mountainside
but she thrived

and now everyone is watching atalanta run
everyone is dreaming they are the one
who can fly

atalanta speared the caledonian boar
and saved ancient greece
deadly but too beautiful
to join the quest for the golden fleece-
jason said no

she who lives freely is misunderstood
she likes it best alone in the woods
under the sky

the forest is singing, can you hear the trees?
the creatures are talking, they don't care what you think
and the gift is this life and a star
