As the long shadows cast behind fade away|It's a little bit louder, better and brighter every day|Here in the city, sun still shines now and then|Oh, we still make the same mistakes again||You're the only thing I've ever really known|I'm on the run|Well, it's taken me this long to figure out|I've just begun||Way, I'm on my way|So soon the day will break|Away||As the afternoon is burning away the morning rain|It'll begin with a laugh, letting me know I can love again|But it's still too close, give me the time, I can mend|And I still make the same mistake now and then||You're the only thing I've ever really known|I'm on the run|Well, it's taken me this long to figure out|I've just begun||Way, I'm on my way|So soon the day will break|Away||Baby see me when|I can sleep again|Oh, come see me when|I can sleep again||You're the only thing I've ever really known|I'm on the run|Well, it's taken me so long to figure out|I've just begun|You're the only thing I've ever really known|I'm on the run|Well, it's taken me this long to figure out|I'm on the run||Oh, towards the sun|Play, I'm on my way|You'll hear me say|So soon the day will break, again||Baby see me when|I can sleep again|Baby see me when|I can sleep again
