Boy On the Run

Lyrics

[Verse 1] He was running like a native across the creek Singing in the field in the wind in the sun There he goes racing down the street Just like a boy on the run [Verse 2] He takes a stone and throws it in the water And watches the circles as they slowly fade He fills the air with sudden laughter As he thinks of all the plans that he made [Bridge] Well he's scared of the future In need of the past Just sitting here Watching his hour glass [Verse 3] Down the street the accordions are calling Stay away boy, there's nothing for you here And he can hear the buildings falling As they're stripping away all of his years [Verse 1] He was running like a native across the creek Singing in the field in the wind in the sun There he goes racing down the street Just like a boy on the run
