Run |
Oh, my child, thirty years today |
You came into my life and everything changed |
If there’s one thing I tried to teach you |
Girl, don’t you waste your time |
Come this September you’ll be somebody’s wife |
I won’t paint a picture |
Of what you want to see |
Love is the harder times |
Take it from me |
I would run down the lane and into the night |
Run so fast, I swear my feet would fly |
Run from my babies asleep in their beds |
Run from my lover and my best friend |
And back again |
And all of this courage I’ve tried so hard to hold on to |
Ever since that day you and your brother left for school |
They say just over that hill the fog rolled in |
And come quick, doctor, we think somebody’s been killed |
And I have been a healer |
Of other people’s pain |
Yeah, I know sometimes you don’t like |
The ways I’ve changed |
But the smell of the world came into my lungs |
The sound of the gravel when my legs went numb |
And my heart nearly burst right out of my chest |
It felt so good to know I wasn’t dead |
I would run down the lane and into the night |
Run so fast, I swear my feet would fly |
Run from my babies asleep in their beds |
Run from my lover and my best friend |
And back again |
Back again |
