Run

Oh, my child 30 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

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
Come quick doctor

We think somebody's
been killed

I have been a healer
Of other people's pain
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
And 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

And back again
All of this courage
