Marathon Video (MV)

This marathon of hurdle hopping continues
Neverendingly it seems and there's no time
For stopping jumping because of aching knees
Or burning lungs or arrival of Spring

I noticed several laps ago
Caught a ladybug in flight it crawled out through
The gaps between my fingers held it up
Before my sweat-stung eyes until

The flake-like wings unfurled abruptly trapped it
Didn't mean to kill the thing
I didn't mean to kill the thing you see
But just then cleared a hurdle
Came down with a jolt

I thought the bug had disappeared
But found it in my palm all smeared

I didn't mean to kill the thing you see
But just then cleared a hurdle
Came down with a jolt

I thought the bug had disappeared
But found it in my palm all smeared
I thought the bug had disappeared
But found it in my palm all smeared

This marathon of hurdle hopping
Continues neverendingly
It seems and there's no time for stopping
Jumping cause of aching knees

Or burning lungs or arrival of
Spring I noticed several laps ago
Caught a ladybug in flight
It crawled out through the gaps

Between my fingers held it up
Before my sweat-stung eyes until
The flake-like wings unfurled abrupt-
Ly trapped it didn't mean to kill

The thing you see but just then cleared
A hurdle came down with a jolt
I thought the bug had disappeared
But found it in my palm all smeared

I thought the bug had disappeared
But found it in my palm all smeared
