Spirit On The Run Lyrics

My Mama pulled me in

Told me there'd be days like this

Come rest your head

Upon my shoulder

You know tomorrow's

Gonna be brighter

But I looked into her eyes

I said Mama I'm so tired

The more I live

The more I learn

What I got to say don't mean much

Mostly faded words

And a slip of the tongue

The more I give

The less I get

It's gettin' harder to forgive

So I'm leavin'

Just a spirit on the run

She said honey

That's just how life goes

You can't run

From grown' old

But you walk in the wisdom

Of the night

And the thousand tears

You have cried

But I looked into her eyes

I said Mama I'm so tired

The more I live

The more I learn

What I got to say don't mean much

Mostly faded words

And a slip of the tongue

The more I give

The less I get

It's gettin' harder to forgive

So I'm leavin'

Just a spirit on the run

I'm gonna run, run, run, run

I'm gonna run, run, run, run

The more I live

The more I learn

What I got to say don't mean much

Mostly faded words

And a slip of the tongue

The more I give

The less I get

It's gettin' harder to forgive

So I'm leavin'

Just a spirit on the run

I'm gonna run, run, run, run

I'm gonna run, run, run, run

I'm gonna run, run, run, run

I'm gonna run, run, run, run
