Every second I get older there’s a line
I get down and pray for time
Every moment is a boulder being fired
Every night a day has died
Let it go, you can’t try to race it
Don’t you know you don’t have to face it
Keep your head, don’t be misled to waste it
Run away with me —
I’m a sinner cos I’m led by vanity
Someone come and save my soul
Say the word and I will take you down
With me
Somewhere we can both grow old
Let it go, you can’t try to race it
Don’t you know you don’t have to face it
Keep your head, don’t be misled to waste it
Run away with me …
I don’t know what to do about this anymore
You know, sometimes I forget I’m alive
And then it hits me in the night
And I realise
It’s too dark and it’s too light
It’s too loud and it’s too bright
And it’s too hard, and too
Long to be on your own
So run away with me …
