How To Run

When I die

I don’t want a casket of regrets

I’ll be fine

Just hand me back my secrets

How is that you know me better

Than the people I’ve known forever?

*I say, baby, lately,

I’m so sick of this

I need to get away

Go far

I want to know who you are

And you’ll see

This is me_

Never known where I stand

No matter how hard I try

Temporary’s my life

And I’d like to have time

For a little white wine

But that’s not what I’ll remember

When I die

*You say, maybe maybe

A house, picket fence

Couple of cute kids

I say, no way

I need a plane

A car and no money

Broke, but free

That is me_

I’ve been dreaming of the day

I leave this town

Since I was eight years old

And I need to go now

*They say, “You love the way he,

Laughs, smiles, moves, talks,

And he’s everything you want.”

And he said, “Marry me please.”

But that’s not me

Oh, oh, that’s not me_

I was thinking maybe you’d come

And if I know anything it’s how to run

If I were to take someone with me

You’d be the only one

So run, run with me

So run, run with me

Think of what we’ll see

Run, run with me

Come, come to me       (He said, “Marry me please.”)

Run, run with me          (But that’s not me)

Run, run with me          (I wish it was me)

Just run, run with me

When I die

I wanna leave someone

Who knows how to run
