"Run" was the first track released by The Good Years ( David Booth, Steven Mears and Andy Trill) - part of an ongoing project to put together an album.
lyrics
counting dreams, holding on to them
precious as spider thread
sometimes it’s up to me
where they go, where dreams go
do i listen when they talk to me?
talk to me with hope
and put their heart fully in to my
shaking hands, shaking hands
fine words are often spoken
but words alone get nothing done
we all have faults and cracks
and a time to run, a time to run
power sits heavy on the heart
frightening and hard to take
and wishes come for giving it
all away, all away
fine words are often spoken
but words alone get nothing done
we all have faults and cracks
and a time to run, a time to run
knowing this is half the battle
we can do, or do nothing at all
fine words are often spoken
but words alone get nothing done
we all have faults and cracks
and a time to run, a time to run
in tired armour, tired armour
